Why talk about sectioning? Because after you've been in the industry for more than a week, you will have likely realized that sectioning is the only realistic approach to a repair.
Take, as an example, the door opening and rocker assembly. On many vehicles, this panel is installed during the assembly process before the roof, fenders and quarter panel. So to install this piece in its entirety, you have to remove each of the panels that were installed after the piece in question was put in place at the factory. Fenders are relatively easy, but the roof and quarter panel are normally things you remove only when you're throwing them away. In order to make a realistic and reasonable repair, you need to find an acceptable method that allows you to replace the damaged portion of these (and other) panels without disturbing any more of the undamaged body than necessary. This method (you guessed it) is sectioning.
