All I can say is that certainly they haven't seriously evaluated
smarty, you can use it pretty much in the same way than Xtemplate,
template power or any other "just replace the vars" template system
out there. Said that, the real advantage of smarty is that it let's
you separate the presentation logic from bussines logic, not just the
html code, but also higher order process related to output like
trasnlation, creation of tables, etc... in order to let you change
your presentation without 0 changes on your bussines logic.
In many cases the presentation layer & the logic behind it represents
the bigger amount of code in your system, smarty reduces the size of
it by much.
Now I'm working on a platform for an ISP, all of it on php+smarty,
right now the feature set of it is already bigger than the existing
platform while having 1/12 it's code size -extrapolating from current
development, it'll have about 1/3 the size of the actual one, being
functionally equivalent and with lots of extra features-, most of it
thanks to smarty and the way it has allowed me to develop it.
