I can think of a few reasons- perhaps to abstract a complex database
relationship into a single entity in most of the codebase?

A model can use its related tables, i.e if Post hasMany Comments, in
the Post model you can use $this->Comment.

You can also load arbitrary models on the fly using App::import.

And of course you can do this abstraction at the DB level using a
MySQL view to join tables.

If Dardo has any other tricks for this, I'd be interested too!
