I thought it was clear. Here, I'll put numbers in front of the points:
1) I don't need to shoot wide-open as often to get adequate subject isolation, which allows me to get closer to the lens 'sweet spot'
2) I don't have to rely on ISO for 'brightness' as much, have more Total Light when I do shoot wide-open, so my images in the same circumstances are more noise-free
Actually there's another, but I don't use it as often as the other two:
3) I sometimes underexpose a tad more at high-ISOs to capture more highlight detail - more DR up there to work with.
There are a few other things, one of which is that the larger VF has made composition a bit easier and more enjoyable, but that hasn't changed what I do, it's just resulted in more fun and more keepers, probably.
BTW, trying to explain something in detail or tie it to a past point for the benefit of readers is not 'stalling'. Should I not put forth the effort to explain things in detail to you any more?
