Advantages of Steam Heat vs. Forced Air Heat

Some steam heat advantages that I can think of:

1) No blower motor to run and maintain
2) No squirrel cage
3) No furnace air filter to replace
4) No humidifier needed to run and maintain
5) No ductwork to clean

From what I have read, gas forced air heat is considered to be generally more efficient than steam heat.

Wouldn't the above advantages make up for some of that?
