| Parallel sets up a space valid from the camera to infinity, though the closer to camera the subject is, the harder it is to watch. Think of it as the "Thousand-yard stare". Converging is useful because it allows us to comfortably look at near objects, just as we do in real life. The downside is that subjects far back in the frame may become unwatchable, so one ordinarily will need to limit the distant space with a wall or similar. In other words, parallel creates a large neutral space most comfortable at infinity, whereas converging creates a space tailored to the subject only.
