WCD vs. Swerve

This year in preseason robotics, we are experimenting with both a WCD and a swerve chassis to prepare for the season. I am leading a grouping making the WCD. People always call WCD a back-up drive, but then I point out to them that most teams in Einstein in a given year use it (or a modified form of the 6 wheel drive). Can somebody please elaborate on why you would want to use WCD over swerve in a game that requires maneuverability (such as 2008 or 2011)? Thanks
