The traditional to Roth conversion can help those who remain in the same bracket as well. This is because by spending Roth dollars one can avoid pushing one's taxable income into the next bracket. Technically, that's what you said, but this can be a significant issue even if one's expenses don't require that income, because of RMDs for tIRA but not Roth IRA. Likely to be an issue for those in the low-single millions of assets which is actually quite a few people who consistently save a large portion of income.
