I think the short answer to your question is, if you learn how to construct chords, from the basic triad, to the extensions (7ths, 9ths, #9, etc), then the inversions, you ultimately will be a walking encyclopedia of chords. And that's not a bad thing. It'll open up the fretboard for you, and you'll see all the "dots" connected. Something I'm still working on myself after many years of playing. jmho.
