I like to use "y'all" because it makes it clear that it's a collective term, and leaves little room for confusion. In the English language, "you" is used to refer to both the singular and plural, and often times people take the form "you" personally, even if you mean to say "you" collectively.
For example:
Singular: You should pay more attention to details.
Plural: You (all) should pay more attention to details.
(As in, everyone should do this, not just you alone, so it's less personal and more general.)
Besides, it's fun to say, and it just rolls off the tongue. Yaaaaaaaaall.
