It's a matter of individual taste I think.  Personally, I don't use fan jets as I feel that there would be less control over where I spray the water.  If the brickwork or vents above a frame get sprayed, it could cause a problem with muck running down.  I have to say though that I've never actually used fan jets.

i think fan jets may be more precise than you think if set up well. they fan spray in a line, like a horizantal line, so if your brush is at the top frame no water is sprayed onto masonary for example.
re. whether they are better, i think so. your are spraying water on more area.

My own fan jets are inside the brush, just like the needle type jets.

A line of the bristles in the brush are removed to alow the full width of the fan jets to work.
The spray is contained by the surrounding bristles.
In use you have a spread of water going the complete width of the brush.

It is probably a very personal thing though, most use either one or the other and swear by them.

I would personally like to read a reply from someone who uses both types on a daily basis, and their observations on the differences in use.

have used the straight jets for a long time and years ago used only a single spray jet on the gooseneck  which sent water  in a fan about 1" above the top of the brush, worked well for commercials but not on domestics as it sprayed on the brickwork.
now i only use through the brush fan spray jets and  swear by them. they send a line of water from the middle of the brush that spans the entire length making rinsing so much quicker and allowing me to clean my usual 5 million houses a day :
