What reasons are there for using yarn instead, other than preference? Are there pros/cons of both? Yarn uses the NPM registry for packages, doesn’t it?
I think it's a personal preference, yarn did have some issues some years ago where their registry was down all the time, so decided to stick to NPM myself.
On a more serious note though, it's mostly personal preference, and I really love that I can just run yarn and will install my packages, and it's output is a lot cleaner and easier to read than what npm produces.

it caches packages, so it is fast
