Quicklook lets you hit the space bar and see the score, scroll through it etc. without opening Finale or the file. If you're looking through twenty versions of something for a particular thing Quicklook is immediate rather than opening and closing the files. Or for something like a quick check through a folder of orchestral parts. Not having quicklook would be like having no Return key. Of course you can still get stuff done, but not efficiently.
