Remote controlled tug

Recently I saw a SAS 737 being pushed from a gate in EBBR. I was quite amazed by the ugly little thing used for that. A remotely operated wart clamping itself to the main gear. The groundman standing like a ten year old with the the most expensive remote controlled airplane in the world. What´s the gain over the regular truck. Do the pilots have to steer?
