In my opinion building for source is the most useful when building a system with specific requirements or constraints (e.g. embedded system or old PC with limited memory and processing power). It is also a great learning process.
One thing it won't do is make sure the application doesn't install in directories that are forbidden by FHS/LSB. It also won't make sure the application uses system libraries instead of compiling their own versions. And these are only examples.
