I'm curious if whonix actually provides any value rather than just running tor locally?

Like has there ever been a case when because tor was run locally on someones computer over using whonix for tor that they were compromised?

This. When the safety tool/system is so good that you don't realise if it is working or not. I think a better question would be "whether anyone was compromised while* using it?"

Edit: a word.
