Finale means that once the notes are entered, I can use them in a variety of
ways.

I'm confused -- finale just makes files also. All three notation
products produce their own proprietary format, they can produce midi
files and they can produce MusicXML files and they can export their
notation as graphic files.
I don't see how Finale files are any more versatile, or how Sibelius and
Dorico files are any less versatile than Finale files.
The one edge that Finale has (and I consider it only a very tiny edge)
is that it can produce SmartMusic files. Since I don't use SmartMusic
and I am not producing files for others to use with SmartMusic, it's a
meaningless tiny edge to me.
But then maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean, which wouldn't
surprise me.
