More pixels are huge when printing large prints, like 72".
For a wildlife photographer, have a large file to crop and still maintain excellent detail is really big. We crop almost everything.
When you can get really close and limit your crop, then the payoff in details is very clear.

Lot's of dynamic range in this image also, which would have been problematic with a 5D2, but no problem with an a7RIII. Also shot at ISO 2000, which I would not have done with my 5D2, hand holding an 800mm setup.
