This browns the outside of the meat without sujbjecting it to the massive high heat needed in an oven (to achieve similar browning). You then park the beef into a super low oven and cook to desired temp.

I like cooking it in the 225 range to desired internal temp, resting, then hitting with the torch.

Either way, the only way I'd put it in a hot oven to get a crust is if I wanted a big gray ring of meat around the edges.
