It is nice when you generally write {POSIX,Bash} scripts, and decide to quickly throw something together in the interactive shell. I find myself often putting $(), before realising that I need to remove the $ to make it valid in fish.
But yeah, i think it's mostly to make shell scripts of the internet work OOTB.
