Well, I don't think site visitors realize that there is/might be
additional content visible when they go to the single post page (and they
may not know how to get there, despite the conventions). Since we see
(almost?) everything else on the index views for (every?) other post
format, hiding the content for gallery posts and just displaying the
gallery breaks the pattern and you wouldn't expect any content to be
hidden.
I'm actually surprised that there haven't (?) been complaints from new-ish
users who think the non-gallery part of a gallery post has disappeared
(probably a combination of people not understanding/using post formats and
people landing on single view pages from the view post links in the admin,
rather than looking at their main blog page). Personally, I like to
provide a short paragraph for context at the beginning of a gallery
[post], so losing the context on index pages is problematic. A lot of it
depends on what's in the gallery, if it's just a bunch of pictures of food
or scenery or something, the post title typically provides adequate
context, but if it's about a project or event context may be needed,
depending on the organization.
