It tells you what parts of your image are out of gamut.
Otherwise, how would you know what parts of the image need to be brought
into gamut?
A proof setup tells you how the image will look, but unless you have a
really good display AND really good eyes, you aren't likely to tell which
areas have been clipped.
The gamut warning is probably more useful today than when it was first
implemented - now we have more accurate color transforms, and more accurate
color data.
