Default Why grow in containers

Good afternoon from Spain.
Since I am registered in tomatoville I have observed that most of you have the tomato plants in pots or containers, even gardeners who have enough land and space prefer to cultivate in containers to cultivate directly in the garden soil.
And I find it very curious. From my short experience in the tomato plants always in my country has been cultivated in the direct garden from ancestors and generation after generation, good soil, aerated and oxygenated, with earthworm humus, dried leaves and cow, sheep or horse manure .
This year is my first year growing in containers, but only dwarf plants, but the experience I have in pots is that the plant has weakened and has not developed well.
This year I have only grown in containers dwarf plants and two of pink KARMA also to see how they adapt to the pots, apart I have 5 pink KARMA in the garden.
I wonder ... will it be only for aesthetics?
Thank you very much
