I'd always assumed that using the status codes means you can act on the returned message even before you have 'read' it. Since SOAP requires you to make transitions from one 'state' to another based on success or failure, I always thought that you could move along, purely based on the status code, without having to read the envelope. Of course you will want the envelope since it gives you additional info, but the actual processing of that extra information could be done separately.
