I have learned that for create operations I must use preImages and for delete operations postImages to use, what are the reasons for these? Didn’t find any convincing answers yet.

Good point Raj, the other consideration to use retrieve is when there is a potential record changes on the same record within the plugin process. But again, it is really situational.

But the pre and post image only contains snapshot data, sometimes it might be necessary to retrieve the entity, as not all attributes come through. This may not be such a big issue for post-image, but definitely one to watch out for in pre-image.
