I have a use case in Powershell: my company has a number of scripts that are minimally but importantly customized per-location, and I have an otherwise unused "SiteId" variable where I keep the location name for that specific script for a quick sanity check when I'm looking them over for any reason. Not necessary, but useful to me. Probably wouldn't do the same thing in a compiled program, but I can at least see where someone might want something similar.
