I had to do this to recover my personal blog after both it and the backups had been lost due to two unrelated snafus during covid. I downloaded the pages from the internet archive and used my own shellscript to extract the text as markdown and then republished it using a static site generator.

Not exactly a common usecase I wouldn't think but it's good to be able to do this.
