Trees are a good example. When working with trees, instead of entering each definition and manually positioning the Axes, this command automates the axes position for you.
Also, when working with amy kind of contanier that you wish to Spawn or Spawn Brush into a mass, keeping Axes in the bottom center is often advantageous.
When you Shift containers, Shift will turn containers not around their geometric centers, but around their axes. Shift results are typically best when the axes are in a center position. This minimizes apparent item repositions.
While you will not get the same fine-grained control as with a manual place, in many scenarios, this can be good enough.
