A vernier caliper is easy to use, quick and simple to operate. However it has an accuracy limited by the vernier scale, readings are dependent on operator ability both in terms of eyesight and the force and feel in judging when to stop closing the jaws.
Generally speaking verniers are cheap and are something that everyone in a workshop can have individually whereas the more accurate micrometers are issued from a central store when required.
