The pin type is used by ERC to check for e.g. outputs connected together or
unconnected inputs.  I use ERC on every schematic as a final check before
generating the netlist, but with  a much more rigorous check matrix than the
default to pick up such things as unintentionally unconnected passive pins
(e.g. on connectors).
