expandability, in my current layout, if I have n objects, I have to have n-squared switches. Above a certain number, adding a module could become very time-consuming.
Yeah, doing it the hard way with connections means you have to wire every permutation. Look at this example for a 4 to 4 matrix. Imagine how much fun an 8 to 8 or higher looks like.
If you have an abstraction for 4x4, you could make an abstraction for 8x8 quite easily, by using four 4x4 blocks. This also applies to any other sizes, recursively.
