Evidence that auto levels loses details -- take a photograph (or a scanned engraving, or whatever) and open Levels, and press autl. Note that the little triangles marking the end-points are not under the ends of the black part - in other words there are multiple pixel values that are used in the image that end up having the same value after "levels". I'll attach a screenshot that shows the triangle isn't at the end of all the values, but some way in. This behaviour is good in some cases and not others.
