...which I then quite often (more often than not, maybe?) end up
choosing to put back, using other software on my computer.

It seems a waste of processing steps -- but then, I generally want a
touch of vignetting applied to the image after I've cropped it, so for
those images I end up wanting to crop, I guess it's okay for the
camera's firmware to have provided me with a more even canvas to start
with.  I guess.
