What advantage would playing a piano accordion give me that a button accordion wouldn’t?

The main advantage a piano accordion has over a button accordion resides in the piano accordion’s hybrid layout of the treble registers and the bass. A piano accordion player’s knowledge of the accordion’s piano treble keys (despite the shorter keyboard length) allows them to easily understand the standard piano keys layout, which is the most common format used for learning western music theory. While on the other hand, piano accordion players still have the advantage of having the bass buttons similar to the button model. A piano accordion acts as a middle ground between the piano accordion treble, and the button accordion bass model.
