The full coin image gives more information than is contained in a small group of detail shots, and documents all the markers rather than just those the attributer found most interesting.

I heartily endorse this idea. For well known varieties, I will often check the variety catalog sites, and then head straight to PCGS TrueView to examine the whole coin in high resolution color photographs.

It is also very true that the original listing puts you at the mercy of whatever the attributer found worthy as markers. I would assume that they often do not have multiple specimens to compare. The remaining information on the coin is simply lost.

Exactly! That is my justification. My images, even the simpler ones, are 2-3x the resolution of the True Views so show all the small details. Makes nailing an attribution much easier.
