The main difference is that it is sensitive to page elements moving (i.e. the page shifting down a few pixels would radically change the completeness %). That could be a good or a bad thing depending on how you felt about layout moving.

The topic of defining better visual metrics is actively evolving - stay tuned for more updates!
