This is surely the difference between a penetration test and a
vulnerability scan?

A penetration tests is designed to map out the likely extent of
vulnerabilities found
by going a step deeper (without disrupting service). A vulnerability
scan lists
'surface' vulnerability discoveries and moves on!
