Because you get a tiny window, approximately 3 cm long, literally
unreadable. But removing any frames the wm normally applies, you get
virtually a black square with white spots. If I use an xterm, it's
almost always to type in commands instead of going through multiple
menus -- so I don't care about output. Besides I can type in my
command blindly, so again no need for feedback. Mozilla, for
instance, pops up and I can type in another command! :) 
That tiny window really looks cool, like a hole in my desktop. And
imagine it on black background! 
No, seriously, you *can* use it for what I described above.
