Why bear claw latches?

I have no experience with these but it seems to be a common addition. Keep in mind my truck came with the doors sitting in the bed and I've never seen them latch. Are the stock latches really that bad, or do you have to have the bear claws to use things like electric lock and door poppers? Will someone give a good explanation for this without the "boy you're stupid" that I'm sure I deserve for asking. Also, I have a set of complete 70 Chevelle doors...could I just cut out those lock mechanisms and transplant them for the same effect while saving $100? Thanks in advance!
