Two big reasons - it appears to fit you better. That is a about 75% of choosing a bike, IMO.
The second reasons is that you can deal with a lot of the smooth ride issues by tire selection.

My new bike has hydraulic disc brakes. Took my old bike (105 rim brakes, kool stop pads) out the other day for a training ride. Oh my!
Love the new brakes!

Domane. I have a 14 (without the front shock) and it is a great bike that has given me many hassle free, comfortable miles. For me, I love that rock solid feeling when going downhill.. The bike just rides right.. Also, I like the component line up better than the Roubaix. I have never tried a Roubaix though, so take my opinion with a grain of salt 
Good luck!
