I can see why a new Domino developer could be confused by this - seeing in the properties that a scheduled agent will run against all documents when in fact it builds a custom collection doesn't make much sense.
Having a scheduled agent spend CPU cycles building a collection that you don't use makes no sense. I guess in the big picture, this isn't that important. However, I have heard that for larger databases, scheduled agents take longer to run as a result.
