It's mostly to get the feel of what's ahead. It can be a good test file as well and it can help feed the testers channel. I don't think it is worth trying to get the file look like the original. For a part of it, though, it might be interesting to know how it went. Mainly (I should write, only!) for testing purposes, which in fact is of great help, whenever possible. Cheers!
