The advantage of targeting external addresses in aliases is that it works when most of Fastmail's servers are down. It only requires the main or alternative MX servers to be running. That makes it the way to go for backup accounts designed to provide an alternative place to read new mail when Fastmail is mostly down for a significant period. About a decade ago, that was important. Today, for most people Fastmail's availability is sufficiently good that robust backup accounts are not critical.
