Multiple ground rods must still be bonded together per code.

Keeping ground lines outside is not a bad idea, it simply wasn't deemed important to the code writers (NFPA) and therefore is not a requirement. If the National Fire Protection Association didn't think it was important enough to specify otherwise , I'm not going to argue with them, especially when the code EXPLICITLY permits the practice. See NEC 810.21(G).
