For single use apps what you suggest is good but the average house whole has multi use apps and that's when pressure tank size comes into play.
If I'm flowing 10 gpm filling a tank and the pump is running continuously below cutoff pressure that's fine, but when my shower head is flowing 1.8 gpm I don't want that same 10 gpm pump cycling off and on every 30 seconds because the pressure tank is to small.
In our area wells are deep, one under 200 ft is considered a shallow well.
The minimum recommended water flow to a home is considered to be around 10 gpm so pumps in this area are sized according to hp and stages needed to deliver 10 gpm to the highest elevation the water will be delivered to, there forth the number of times a pump cycles to deliver a given amount of water is determined by the size of the pressure tank, it's size is usually determined by the location and available space for the tank.
