Okay, I'll bite. :)

My ignorant view is that stored procedures are software written in a 
quasi-proprietary language that's less powerful and arguably even uglier 
than C++, which must be stored in the DB engine where it's resistant to 
source code control and other change management practices that overcomes 
these difficulties.

If by some wild chance I've managed to capture the essence of the issue, 
what compelling value do you find that outweighs these problems?

If, as seems more likely, I'm wrong in my assessment, I'd appreciate a 
viewpoint correction.
