(With my FPC hat on) There is no such recommendation.

The role of %{..} is comparable to "quotes", "escapes" etc. in other
languagues.
Whether to use them is largely a matter of personal preference - I for one
prefer the %{..} form.

One recomendation, however: Be consistent within one *.spec, i.e. exclusively
either use %{xxx} or %xxx. Mixing both forms unnecessarily complicates 
sed'ing, grep'ing, searching etc. of *.specs.
