I'm thinking 2000's Volvos and Mercedes where the PCM is installed like a cartridge and the connector is on the bottom. Pull out the pcm, game over. No chance of a loaded circuit computer power test without disassembling way too much plastic garbage.
Sure, I could use a headlight bulb, and sometimes I do, or I can fly right down the connector pins with the Load Pro on my old school Vantage.
Same thing with some of those weird VAG relays.
I am NOT sticking up for Dan Sullivan. I know Dan's first name could be spelled with a capital C you next Tuesday, and the tool catches a lot of crap from the diagnostic YouTube community. I could do a fine job without it, sure. But it works for me. What am I supposed to do, let a $50 dollar bill collect dust in my tool box because Eric O. and Ivan might pick on me if they saw me using it?
I'm my own man, if i want to wear a hotdog suit while driving the loader around the junkyard, I'm doing it! (Pictures to prove it too

If I think there's value in a diagnostic tool, I'm using it. And not just to check spark and clean the crud out of my ears, lol
