Many.
Though they aren't common enough that it needs to be a built-in, especially as you can already specify a page specific icon via a link tag in your page's head which every up-to-date stable browser has had support for since 2010 or before (ref: https://caniuse.com/?search=link-icon https://caniuse.com/?search=link-icon).

- dspillett 2y agoYes? Other people had already mentioned some in this thread. Generally: Any circumstance where you might want the icon to change per section/page/app rather than per (sub)domain. Do you want me to enumerate all possible combinations of web server configuration and tick the ones that applies to?! For one: perhaps you host several tools off the same domain name, either literally on the same web server or via a proxy arrangement. As I said, these circumstances aren't all that common, and when they turn up I doubt the right favicon being use is going to be something you'd care about overly, but I wouldn't be surprised to find there are circumstances where it is important enough to someone.
