It's very handy for working to set up partnerships/sponsorships to help keep the project going, help bring other apps on board to use our open source format, and to track where site visitors are coming from to determine what languages we should add to the site (as either just a landing page or a full translation) or the software platform (currently in 56 languages).

Language localization stuff is about the only reason I could think of, and even then like... don't open source projects almost always rely on passionate users for translations? Thanks for the explanation in any case, I at least can picture the first working with bigcorp that doesn't know any other way of measuring the impact of what they fund.
