The only real upside of knowing, imho, is knowing any associated health risks of that breed. But you shouldn't assume for exactly the same reason - if you tell a vet they are a Russian Blue when they are not, it could lead to incorrect assumptions (as an example)

She's listed as a grey short-hair to the vet. Definitely not a Russian blue after I looked up all the breeds of grey cats. I've narrowed it down to two for what it's worth just based on appearance.
