I trim full spares and cook the tips for myself!

I don't own a grinder and while I have done some pretty good rib tips- I just don't have much use for full spares. I've cooked them whole and trimmed at service but the thin and floppy bits just don't cook up well (for me).
When I do my version of charro beans, I use bacon or smoked brisket- the rib flaps don't do much for me.
The pre-cut STL are just more convenient.
Cuz I'm too Lazy to trim full spares.......
I'm with SmittyJonz....
Sometimes I just don't have the time to cut the tips off, other times I just plain lazy and I don't feel like cutting them off.
Most of my guests tend to eat with their eyes before they serve themselves. The St. Louis cuts just looks more appealing, and with young children and toddlers in attendance; no one has to worry about a choking hazard with the little pieces of cartilage.
It's all a matter of personal preference coupled with your available time.
Full spares have a lot of wasted meat on them that I don't care to cook or eat. St. Louis or baby backs are where it's at for me.
In competition I don't use full spares because they are generally too long to fit in the box, and I'm pretty sure the judges wouldn't want to eat the rib tips/cartilage.

Looks like Richardson Texas is the closest one to us 92.
