Interesting, same question was just discussed on another board. I commented that of the 100 or so projects I've worked on, I think the EE specified wire grounds. Others pointed out the EMT is electrically better and the EEs specify it because their fee is based on percentage of work (not my experience).
I just wired my new barn/garage - all EMT - and ran a wired ground - so I guess I side with the EEs I've worked with.
With all the things code requires, odd wired grounds in EMT isn't one of them. I suppose it's an incentivize EMT use over less robust systems.
