If you use the service account directly (so without a proxy), there are still some very minor differences in permissions. I've read about it a long time ago and don't remember the details, but I could be related to some "sandboxing" of agent in SQL Server. I don't know 🙂
Anyway, the moral of the story is: don't use the service account directly 😀
