Not an expert by any means, but what I noticed is that if a card has some surface flaws (a little stray print, a spot, a dot, uneven color, whatever) then when a scan is super bright, those tend to get lost in the background. As a rule of thumb, I would say that if your holding the card in hand, know there is a flaw, and the scan isn't showing it, it would be better to make some scan adjustments.
On a note unrelated to brightness, I remember one listing once - a really nice card graded PSA 3, a head scratcher for sure, but the seller noted "spider creases" in the description. I would've rather seen them, but maybe he just couldn't capture them.
