From the sounds of this article it looks to me that they were mailing letters they type that only require a stamp and drop in a mail box. I have noticed that sending a normal letter first class only takes about 2 to 4 days to get pretty much anywhere in the country. Which would be just about as fast as if you sent it priority mail.
When it comes to packages on the other hand priority mail is faster then first class and like Matt said is usually not much more expensive. Plus you have the option of insurance for expensive items.
I would say the reasoning behind this is that packages and letters are sorted differently with packages probably needing to be hand sorted where as letters can be sorted by machine.
