So, one of the big reasons for private pub servers, at least from an unrelated player's perspective, is that they're moderated. This is good for dealing with teamkillers and cheaters. Console BF3 has, last I checked, no team damage and no cheating. You only have voice with your immediate squad and it's easy to mute anyone who annoys you, and voice idiots are dealt with by Microsoft's TOS-enforcement branch on the 360. So the advantages are pretty much nonexistent.

The disadvantages? Screwed up map rotations, screwed up settings, and asshole administrators. I remember getting kicked from BF2 servers because I took vehicles that admins were queuing for. Accidentally TK an admin and don't immediately realize it and beg forgiveness? And don't get me started on kicking for profanity in an M-rated game.
