Comment (by yurivict271):

 Cookie authentication requires this line in torrc:
 CookieAuthentication 1

 Imagine this: package manager installs tor package (by default with no
 cookie authentication in torrc), then my service package. Then services
 are started automatically, how can my service change config?
 CookieAuthentication is not set, and I have to write torrc again.

 So cookie authentication is not the same.
