Do you suppose that's why most viewfinders only display 85 to 96% of the
actual image recorded?
So that when printed or put in the frame, the end result pretty much
covedrs as you think it should?

I'd venture it cuts down the odds of missing something right out on the
edge you purposefully included in your in-camera framing...
