Having the unbag time at YOUR build facility is far superior than having it in the pits. For the most part teams have access to a better machine shop, materials, hardware, etc at their facility than they do in the pits. Working from your facility means that you don't have to worry about forgetting something critical that could make or brake your event if you forgot it at a traditional regional. There is also less stress in that window as well as you don't have inspectors and others politely hounding you to get inspected.

And like RTG said you get time at your event as well.
I should mention that at a regional you have a practice area available which some teams do not have.

Although, I do agree that unbag time is much better then the time you have at a regional.
