I thought this weekend I would have a go at bracketing. Having read the manual it appears that you set the bracketing to the amount you want to expose by: i.e. 1/2 or 1/3 of a stop, under and over exposed and one in the middle.

So here comes the bit I dont understand.

If I am taking a Photo in Manual mode and have composed, metered, selected aperture and taken a shot which I assume is correctly exposed using the viewfinder indicator, why bracket when I can just adjust the sub command wheel to over or under expose the shot as I want?

What is the difference and why is one better than the other?
