To the best of my understanding with regular select you work on actual data from an actual table(s) that exists in your data set. However with create view you generated a new, virtual, table that users can altet without making changes to the original one(s).

view is a database object stored in database that allows you to use DML statement on it . on the other hand the SELECT statement allows you to display the data and stored temporarily in the memory for the current use only.

using select allows you to manipulate the data in your tables even merge some tables together but its only for that time that the statements are rendered. if you create a view you can merge tables and data form other tables that will stay and can be called later in your work.
