I disagree. I think it's much better to write down only the action on a significant hand, whether they took an odd line or it's the first time you've seen them play tpwk, the nuts, or in a 3bet pot. That way, you're not making assumptions or jumping to conclusions until you see more showdowns and understand them better. What you think of as "pot control" may be another thought process entirely.
Also, I make sure to mention the type of player against whom the noted hand took place, eg. "against a fish/tag/lag"
