A thorough test made up of several tests can give a full scale IQ with component scores. Big gaps in the scores, like between verbal intelligence and working memory or processing speed, even helps us detect ADHD.
I feel like I need high processing speed more than anything else when playing competitive video games.
I think those thorough tests are (as you also suggested) mainly used as a diagnosis aid for conditions like ADHD which can manifest as discrepancies between the component scores. In neurotypical people the component scores are AFAIK generally strongly correlated (that is to say, basically the same).
