Well, different users have different needs. Insights serves as a source of general maintenance reports. Just as uncategorized pages might not necessarily be a bad thing in places like w:c:dev: where CSS is sometimes stored in a subpage, and css doesn't need a category at all.

A page without sufficient prose is quite difficult to define because some pages might only need something like 3 sentences, or some pages might only transclude a template. Community central for example is notoriously bad because of their many uncategorized pages.

Both maintenance reports and insights are  reports that don't necessarily need to be acted upon. In fact, the background color of the numbers in insights is indicative of their perceived importance as judged by Wikia staff.

Personally, I like insights because it provides a simple summary without jumping to several  report pages.
