Because Papel is no longer supported by its original creator and it can sometimes be hard to locate the version which isn't on a site which mass-holds software and may contain viruses.
I like outlining too, which is why Papel is just a note-holder - a way of jotting down, in a easy to see at a glance format - thoughts about a novel, locations, characters. I've re-jigged the icons and their purpose to suit my own methods of working, so don't use it 'out of the box', but create my own themes.
Outlining using Word's outline view is an important part of my preparation process, where the actual plotline comes together and sometimes is altered, but I wouldn't know what to put in the outline if I hadn't already jotted down the basic ideas: location, characters, scenes, etc, in Papel.
