PADS Layout has the ability to put the Assembly Layers in the Pad Stack.

This is not true for every CAD tool and we needed a solution for every CAD tool.

Also, with 2D-Lines you have the option of "Outline" and "Filled" and you can't do that with a pad stack.

You have controls over which component family gets Pads on Assembly. This is because there is a Assembly Ref Des that goes inside the closed polygon and you only want both if the part is big to make room for both.

I will ask the programmers if they can add Pads to Assembly in the pad stack for PADS Layout.

I believe all "Pads on Assembly" are 2D-Lines.

It's for an assembly drawing. What other option is there?

When did BGA pads on assembly become 2D Lines?
 
What is the purpose?
