Right, and that's pretty much what I said, just in different words.

If you get in the habit of checking the indicator every day, then once it turns red, you know the one tank is empty and the second tank is full, or nearly so. Now, if you don't check the indicator but, say, once a week, then when you see the indicator is red, you really have no idea WHEN it turned red nor how much propane is remaining in the second tank.
