I think Verant was like 'hey wouldn't it be cool to put a bunch of teleporters under the ocean!' and totally misunderestimated (<3 GWB) the potential of a caster binding there.
That being said, 1-55 or so the firepots are great. 55-60 your main destinations are all in Kunark anyway; its nice for raiding and to run to the tunnel but it's not amazing. And as Tecmos said being able to gate back to your dungeon is nice as well. All in all I think at 60 the firepots are probably better but its not a huge advantage.
For melee I don't see the point really.
