Through body stringing

Well , it's got to change the sound in some way - however small. The arse end of the string is now tight up against a metal ferrule embedded in the body - rather than sitting jammed against a metal bridge that's screwed onto it.

Not sure if it's an advantage but obviously it's a difference. I suspect it will increase sustain so if you want increased sustain - yes , it's an advantage.

Only downside that springs to mind is that the wrappings on the head end of the string are now maybe an inch closer to the nut - and maybe close enough to touch it.

Like most problems in this world, that can be cured with a blade and fire.
