A read-only FS obviously cannot HAVE any data waiting to be written to it when the plug is pulled but having all storage as fixed and unchangable is only useful in some circumstances (e.g. a public information kiosk where nothing the user does is saved).
Jan 2, 2016 at 12:31 comment added user29510 @laxus On a Raspberry PI the need for a switch and a proper shutdown is due to Linux running non-tweaked and the risk of corrupting the SD card when pulling off the power cable. If you run Linux from a read-only root filesystem, that risk is eliminated: data corruption on the SD card results from pulling off the cable while the system writes to the SD card. No data write, no corruption.
