If the build I associate with that new app version has a different version in the Info.plist, what will the user see when they either examine the IPA or if the app displays its own version string? Does the App Store re-write the Info.plist to show the "Store Version" number?

It's extra work that's prone to error. Apple makes me type in a version number when I create a new app version, but if I have to ensure that the bundle I upload matches that, then there's absolutely no point in making it something I can edit.
