Combining with shapes (SHACL or ShEx) creates something operational, for
validation of data, especially when doing data integration or relating
patterns in the data to concepts.
(they overlap with RDFS on domain and range; RDFS is for the
subclass/subproperty).
They seem to be more approachable for a lot of people than OWL.

But, briefly: I have yet to see a good use case that would justify the
expense and trouble of making a formal ontology. The most you will
probably ever need is an RDFS schema, and that mainly for your own
understanding, communication, and documentation.
