Coming from a non-uniformed place i'll say
a) its cheaper. You only wear 'normal' clothes I am not sure this is true - my daughter has "school clothes" that are okay for her to ruin and then non-school clothes, so the cost is probably MORE than it would be to just have a uniform - ie two shirts, two skirts and some tights
b) it cuts down on washing how?
c) it lets kids be kids and express who they are. We put people in suits and uniforms soon enough, let them be individuals
and
d) it probably cuts down on college excesses as they already get to go to town with hair/jewelry/clothes etc at a younger age, therefore don't need to act out as much I don't think so!.
