I can imagine this being used as a control protocol for home/building automation, 20 bits is quite a lot if you consider each bit a device being turned on or off only.
I still don't know why would anyone do this instead of wifi, but definitely way cooler. Also, anyone visits you the first time, there's a guaranteed 20 minute talk about the setup :)
