I work in live events and frequently see people list specific events they have worked on in their resume. While this isn't an apples to apples comparison, it has some merit. Generally, it's not useful for me to know that you worked on something a few years ago. What I care more about is a narrative of impactful work across a number of projects, whether small, large or in between.

If someone violates an NDA to tout their contribution on a project it is an immediate turn off as it shows a breach of trust before we even have had a conversation.

It's likely that over the course of n projects, a contractor was 'over hired' and 'under hired' some amount of times. Seeing a trend of consistent placement in their past work helps me know that they have an area of focus and expertise that I can capitalize on as well. This means they will have a high level of efficiency in the work that I need them to do. Given this, seeing that narrative played out in the resume is important.
