Harvest

Hey guys, I know a lot of you say to wait until half the trichomes are amber before harvesting, but I've been reading Jorge Cervantes's book and he says "When the capitate-stalked trichomes have developed a spherical head and are still transparent, is the best time to harvest. Senescing glands start to turn brown and get smaller; they are starting to decompose and THC content diminishes."
I'm not doubting anyone's knowledge when they suggest to wait until half are amber, but can someone explain why they wait this long and not harvest when they are clear like he says in the book?
Thanks!
