I asked the same question when we were first looking at homes here. Never saw one up north. Had no idea what it was for. Well I learned and for me I like to do "stuff" in the garage and not have it visible to the universe at night (with "security screen"). Sometimes I work on the car or cart and/or just want to leave the garage door opened so a "breeze" can pass through the door and through the house. All this while keeping out the bugs and other critters like snakes, alligators and wild elephants.
I prefer the slider because I just need to open 1 panel to walk in or out or 2 panels to get the golf cart in or out vs. the roll up which has to fully open across 16' x 7' each time I want to just walk in or out. It's also noisier and has motors & gears & switches than can go bad vs. a screen sliding on a metal track.
Roll up has some advantages but for me I prefer the slider (which I still don't have because they are still doing construction on our garage).
