Is continuous article publishing (CAP) a good thing?

Many journals are making the transition to CAP. It seems to alleviate costs for publishers. Also, I suppose it is a natural thing, in view of the fact that nowadays most academic literature is read online.

It is claimed to be a good thing to authors because it substantially speeds up the final publication, with the correct citation. However, in Mathematics, the dissemination of an article to the peopĺe interested usually occurs much before the actual publication; in addition, in the case of application to grants, the acceptance of a paper is enough, as opposed to the final publication.
