Couple of factors I think could be taken into consideration:

You can get away with a clipped folder in many places a sheath knife would be discouraged, prohibited, or have to be concealed.

Speaking from personal experience, I can deploy my Native very nearly as fast as I can deploy any of my belt knives.

IMHO, proficiency in technique is the qualifier in using either.
