If you were to see the story from a different POV, you would get to see parts of the story you never saw. Such as if you saw the point from a boy perspective on a bird and if he thought the bird was pretty. You could change the POV and see it from the birds perspective and what the bird thinks of the human.
I think the most important element of a story is the plot. To me the plot is what makes the story intriguing and fun to read. Without a plot I would personally find the story boring and wouldn’t want to read it.
