I have been always wondering why yum needs a special set of commands to
manipulate groups of packages.  What would be the downside of using just
packages that install no files (a.k.a. meta-packages) instead of groups?

Removing meta packages doesn't remove the dependencies. So you more or less have the same problem. It is easy to install groups, but tricky to remove them.
