It's not useful to people who use different private keys on different machines. It is useful to anyone who has a single private key that they use on multiple machines. The latter isn't really a great idea, but I bet a bunch of people do it anyway.

And maybe there's no real security concern at all, because both computers are desktops sitting right next to each other with the same user login credentials, so there's not really any reason why someone would need to cycle the key on one machine but not on the other.
