I think you’re underestimating the ability of people to multitask. Contesting activities are not binary. You can call CQ and look at a monitor at the same time…..

The score at any given point basically tells you who is ahead or behind in aggregate; it is a snapshot of what has already happened and on what bands the op made it happen; however, watching for CHANGES in the band by band breakdown tells you where those changes in score are happening NOW which is very valuable info if the op knows how to use that effectively, and clearly not the same thing as DX Cluster spots which give away the freq and time of the spotted stations.
