There are excellent reasons to run it in a VM, because it prevents
the leaks by forcing all traffic through one interface.
It is very convenient, while rebooting systems or having
dedicated systems with no clipboard access is not.
I predict Tails run as VM will be far often than on
bare iron.

Security and usability are inversely related. Unusable
systems don't get used.

It warns the user, which is the right thing to do -- your host
might be compromised without you knowing.
