There are some uses of that - for example Nominatim using it as importance hint, I have a tool detecting tourism attractions, and there are probablt many more uses that I am unaware of. I you consider adding this link as valuable please use a proper tag (AKA not wikipedia) - otherwise someone sooner or later will remove such incorrect uses (and it is not certain that she/he will bother with inventing new key).
