Uh, well it really depends a lot on the person who is browsing and the sites they look at. Some sites actually to not display information properly in one or the other mode. For an example of a site that doesn't really display properly in dom mode, see http://www.erik-burggraaf.com. This site displays all it's information properly in group, but leaves things out in dom.
Group mode vastly improves navigation on sites driven by lists and tables. It also makes for a great way to skip over useless or duplicate information on large web pages, especially if they have no headings for the purpose. It's fantastic for reading the articles that often get posted here because it groups the article together and the adds together, so you can ignore the ads and read the article. It does take a lot of practice though, and I have seen people get hopelessly lost, especially elderly people. It's not for everyone or every site, but on many sites it's a huge advantage. Plus I use the item chooser a whole lot. I do occasionally look at a whole page, but very seldom. It just takes to much time, even at 400 words per minute.
