Plus, if your liner ever gets a hole in it, then the whole thing will drain.
I've done both, and there is no way in hell I'd ever dig one again.

Ok but if you get a molded one dont you still have to dig the hole in the shape of the mold anyways, assuming you dont want an above ground pond?
As for the shelving yes I can see the point there. Same with holes in the liner.
