Yes. In the case of something that works for you and not for others, it's to
test whether you're inadvertently taking advantage of an osax (either a
command or a silent coercion) that others don't have: you may have to inform
them that it's required. Or, in the case of something that _doesn't_ work
when you think it should, it can test whether some osax's terms conflict
with application terms or variable names that you're using in your script.
As you surmise, it's obviously important if you're releasing your script to
other users.
