It's just a difference of opinions and it seems quite clean that you will not be able to be convinced of the useful application of image categories in the same way that you won't be able to convince me about galleries. The OP asked whether it was a good idea to implement it and I stay with my opinion that it is an excellent idea.

To answer your last question though as to what is the difference between perusing a category and a gallery: there isn't. It's a personal preference in use. Personally, I detest large galleries on pages, as they look ugly and messy, even with the new gallery layout. To give an example, on the Avatar Wiki, there are 581 images that include Aang. I am very glad that people can just go to Aang's page and then click to view all those images as opposed to finding them on a gallery at the bottom.
