Typical use case is if you are multi-vendor to begin with. Some Vendor ACS's will work fine for compatibility, but you run into the dreaded "buy our cpe or pound sand" argument when you go to get support. If we only did one brand, we'd probably use whatever they have these days, but you might cross not only different LTE vendors into one ACS system, but different technologies as well. Home routers, adsl modems, etc.
