Two uses for me (as a native English speaker who writes pretty well on my own):

1. Reformatting notes or bits of information into something more formal (something I consider actually counterproductive in a way, since formal is often more verbose, but that's expected in certain contexts...)

2. Sifting through the crap of the internet to answer obscure questions. The Google replacement that has been needed.
