1. That way, you never have to move an exe if it's in a hidden folder which xbmc won't see.
2. Spaces aren't an issue either if you just put the file path in quotes.
3. Some exe's won't run correctly unless accessed via the command line.

great advice

Starting a executable or a shell-script with paths that have spaces inside is allways nice ...
