ShortIDs were originally designed for lightning channels, and are now understood by some block explorers. This allows to remove one column in the UTXO tab (height is redundant). In the transaction dialog, the space saving ensures that all inputs fit into one line (it was not the case previously with p2wsh addresses). For clarity and consistency, the ShortID is displayed for both inputs and outputs in the transaction dialog.
