Is full canvass always better than half canvas?

Some of the best advice above is to not get too wrapped up in the details. Your eye, hand and how the suit feels, moves and drapes when you try it on will probably guide you - once you have some experience with clothing - better than applying a checklist of construction details to the suit.

It wasn't until years after I had built my early business wardrobe that I started reading about canvassing / half canvassing / fusing and when I went and checked, it was no surprise as the suits and sport jackets that felt better / looked better / draped better / "aged" better in my wardrobed were canvassed or half canvassed.
