Bisecting is also useful for end users. They might be able to reproduce bugs on their hardware or software configuration that the developers don’t have access to.
Mozilla has a tool (command line or user-friendly-ish GUI front end) called “mozregression” that Firefox users can use to bisect regressions without compiling Firefox. It downloads and runs Firefox Nightly builds from an archive of years of builds, bisecting good and bad builds until the regression commit is found. An indispensable debugging tool for a very complex application!
