Should benefit details be central in essays?

Usually no. Benefits matter for planning, but selection materials should focus on the applicant's proposed contribution and fit.

What is a common mistake?

A common mistake is treating the term as a label instead of connecting it to verified requirements, applicant evidence, and the specific Fulbright award context.
