Quite true, but we used to crop (mask) on the enlarger too so it's nothing new, just easier.

Mark!

However: this is also a great observation that is often overlooked. Aside
from choosing the specific image of the area I am in, I now find myself in
the digital age drawn to cropping from the original I've taken. I often
wonder if that is because I can, simply due to the large image size, and I
can take another look at the image (I often leave photos a week or two and
come back to them fresh in LR or Elements), or I didn't frame the subject
taken well enough? Maybe both? Or is it simply as I originally suggested,
because I can?

Whichever way, reality often gets snipped again.
