georgeL,

When you know your chords by heart , you start reading the music in patterns
and don't have so much work with analysing every piece. Eg in weber you have descending diminished patterns. When you recognise the chord and did train intervals , starting with the correct note saves you reading the other 8 or 12 notes. When you didn't train this , you always have to read and learn those

Also handy : when making a mistake in a piece , knowing the place , chord etc makes you more agile in repairing your mistake

Why is the simplest scale called C and not apple or banana, is as good a question : maybe a musicologisty can tell us when note names were choosen and became standard.
