It can be used for exactly the same purpose: checking the environment before doing the action. E.g. force yourself to read the “production” part of your prompt before running the command. Point at the user name before deleting its record. Read aloud the version name before sending it to deploy. It really makes a different between just glancing at the info, and having to parse it as part of an action.
