It's probably easier for them to blend a small spot within a panel vs blending entire panels (e.g. bumper to fender).

But the Nissan factory paint is not anything to write home about. The clear coat is thin and pretty weak. A good shop would likely use a better clear coat. But that in itself is not a sufficient reason to repaint the whole bumper.
