With guest session:

A: Can I Borrow your computer?
B: Yes, but only when I'm at home, because I have to log in first

With guest account:

A: Can I Borrow your computer?
B: Yes, but you will have to wait 30 seconds after it has started up, and remember to move the mouse regularly so the screen saver doesn't get activated. (The screen saver or any other program that prompts for a password wont accept the empty string)

Why just not an option to enable the a guest session from the login window?
