Why would it make code simpler?

In our projects, we would do that.

In general, processing data with the same return type is easier, you wouldn't like the idea that some method sometimes returns a certain type and on the other times another. Likewise, unify data types by making None to {} is a lot easier for programming and a bit more understandable.
