    Dumb question - aside from aesthetics, what are the practical reasons for the mod/retrofit - less electrical draw?

    Little bit of this and that
    More usable light as @Lurkin stated. Any light upgrade (save for maybe a quality LED projector retro) is going to draw more current/amps than the stock setup, hence why for the ultimate upgrade the key component is the heavy duty harness as it is able to carry more current without voltage loss/drop.
