I think creating and maintaining and accurate digital collection is really helpful to showcase an entirety of a collection, but like Ben mentioned, the digital models, regardless of how accurate they are can't quite capture the full essence of a historical object. Its because of this that I think the greatest benefit of digital collections is for providing a way for people to search for and identify objects that may be of use or interest and then have this information to go visit the objects in person.
