Oy. Yes there, are legit uses. A few straightforward examples:

1) You implementing something boards (like trello) on mobile. The well-established-in-all-the-apps-that-specialize-in-this behavior is snap scrolling.

2) Tiktok/stories/etc. When you scroll up or right, does it ever land you in between two stories? No. This is the exact behavior.

3) Presentations. Say you are building a presentation tool. The whole point is to define separate slides that are on screen one at a time. This is a very natural and appropriate use of this behavior.

So, yeah, carousels suck. But, this behavior is commonly used and useful in a lot of modern software.
