It can help in (admittedly quite odd situations) where you need to, say, 
reinstall grub or a kernel because you broke something ;o) Also, admittedly, in 
that case, I was able to mount /usr before proceeding, but if the package I'd 
needed to reinstall was providing "mount" and that was broken ... meh. I know 
we have rescue disks, but there are still machines without working optical 
drives. Honestly, there are. Now, adding a "rescue" initrd would halfway help 
here ... think that thread died now though.
