Sorry for late reply.
I think having the extra folder capabilities for the $route[default_controller] is better.
It just makes it easier for making nice and cleaner files some people I have seen put all there admin files in one controller folder. You should be able to them to put in sub folders.
I know you can do it for custom routes but for some reason codeigniter does not allow it for $route[default_controller]
Because I like to separate them. example.
controller / frontend / common folder
controller / frontend / common / header.php
controller / frontend / common / footer.php
controller / frontend / common / home.php As default controller. Does not work because codeigniter don't allow extra folders. for $route[default_controller]
My own opinion they should let you be able to have unlimited folder range for default controller routes. But don't think they will change it.
