Yup. Security is layers. Checking this box helps against some threats. Definitely not "close to useless".
Public Cloud cloud have their shit together, but they also deal with millions of hard drives. I could definitely see a story coming out where someone finds a hard drive, some sensitive stuff on it, and just nobody has any idea how it got out. Stranger things than that happen every day.
If it's encrypted then that's another layer of swiss cheese.
