Beside PP's excellent points on the subject, showing has another value.
It gives your reader the sense that they have figured something out for themselves rather than having been spoonfed the point.
People don't like being spoonfed, they get a sense of satisfaction from figuring things out for themselves.
It also helps maintain tight 3rd person POV which is very popular these days.
