vporpo added a comment.

It is exactly the same. There is no super strong reason for having both functions. 
The main reason is that the  BB behaves like a list as it implements begin(), end(), size(), splice() etc. so not having an erase(I) function looks strange.
Up until now one could simply do BB->getInstList().erase(I), instead of I->eraseFromParent(), so this function is covering this case.
