Typically subfloors allow installation of smaller pieces of more expensive material to be applied without having to worry about nail or fastener placement.
I am designing a log cabin that will have 2x6 T&G Voint bottom and square edge top for the loft space. You get a ceiling and floor in one application.

Those floors are beautiful. It's something that I'll think about.
