One valid use case for this is for the software to detect when you're speaking while on mute and notify you that "you're on mute". Maybe I dreamed it up, but I thought I've seen this before (WebEx?). I could imagine a soft-mute feature where you're on mute when you're not talking (perhaps to keep down on background noise) but if your app detects that you're actively talking, it will unmute you. It might lose the first word or two that you say but could be effective. I could also see this going horribly awry when someone thinks they are on mute rather than soft mute and say something Biden-esque, like "what a stupid son of a bitch".
