Answers.Text: Probably that they are large sets that you would expect the extensive instructions would be spiral bound... I find it useful information. One can hypothesize that spiral binding is something reserved for starwars UCS and similar sets...

Answers.Text: Large sets and large building instructions are not necessarily correlated. For example the building instructions for the Taj Mahal model are relatively short, because nearly all the model is highly repetitive   - most of it consists of four identical subsections.

Answers.Text: @alephzero That might be true but smaller sets will certainly not have spiral-bound instructions. So focussing on large sets makes sense. Maybe the seven sets we found so far are the only ones.

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2021-06-21)
  
  I am looking for instructions similar to those of the 75192 Millennium Falcon, i.e. large-format ring binder instructions. Is there a list of sets that have these? Or a database from which this information can be derived? Bricklink does have images of the instructions, but doesn't specify the binding type.
  
  It would be nice if such a list existed. If you know some sets with this binding type, please also mention those.
  
  I own the 75192, 75252 and 10188 instructions, all are nice examples of this type.

  After some manual search, I found only a small number of sets that definitely have spiral-bound instructions. All of them are from the Star Wars theme and almost all of them are UCS models. This is the list so far:
  
  10030 Imperial Star Destroyer - UCS (either glued or spiral-bound)  
  10179 Millennium Falcon - UCS  
  10188 Death Star  
  10221 Super Star Destroyer - UCS  
  75159 Death Star - UCS  
  75192 Millennium Falcon - UCS (2nd edition)  
  75252 Imperial Star Destroyer - UCS (2nd edition)  
  21005 Fallingwater
  
  Please comment or edit if you are aware of other sets.
  
  The following sets were confirmed to not have spiral-bound instructions:
  
  31203 World Map  
  10276 Colosseum  
  71043 Hogwarts  
  10256 Taj Mahal  
  71741 Ninjago City Gardens  
  75978 Diagon Alley
