What is bazinga there for? Just for fun and giggles, or does it serve any other purpose? I am a bit confused about it.

The bazinga was added only for fun to keep the spirit of the famous TV series. We have already received some feedback that this is superfluous and not all users would like to see bazinga. For this reason, we have created a ticket and will work on it in the near future so that this behavior can be disabled or enabled through the configuration parameter.
It's a Big Bang Theory reference. Specifically to the character Sheldon, it's his catchphrase.
I know. But what purpose does it serve? Why is it there? For fun only?
In short - yes, only for fun, but this behavior will be changed in the future - since you are not the first user to ask the same question :-).
Yes! You are totally right :-).
