Specifically, Lennart said that it was required by XDG which he coauthored :) There seem to be two arguments for this style: XDG seems to propose .local/{bin,lib,...} hierarchy; also some people claimed that it's easier to accidentally delete ~/bin as opposed to ~/.local/bin. I am not convinced by either argument: ~/bin and ~/lib look just fine to me, and accidental deletion is IMHO a strawman.
