Running the /etc/init.d/scriptname directly does the same as the service command. It lets you start/stop/check/etc, it *now*. The service command lets you avoid having to type in the full path to the script.
Perhaps of more interest than saving keystrokes, the service command provides the service with a clean environment in which to run rather than inheriting garbage from the user's environment.
