I was struggling to think of a profitable, malicious use case for this but there is at least one: send someone like your landlord a check with insufficient funds in your account and put a hold on their mail, hoping they won't straighten it out until you get paid.

Landlords and vendors can do the same thing: Send you a notice of changes in terms to your contract, and then bill you and send you to collections before you have a chance to object. (Been there, done that, with a landlord who decided that "the apartment I previously rented from her" was my current official contact address. )

I think that you not getting your check to your landlord in time is still your fault, not their's, even if it's lost or delayed in the mail

No, because they won't get anyone's check, and then it's definitely their problem.
