Hey, Dayle Rees here, (guy who made the getlaravel.com promo site) I also wrote the pastes app, and the reason I chose to use routes is that its a tiny application, and using routes avoided all the unnecessary "class fluff" allowing me to prototype quickly. On a large scale app I would have used controllers, which are also available. :)
