And I don't just use it as a gimmick, I use a HDMI/USB-C cable to use it with my TV as a streaming/light gaming setup. Nice to be able to plug it in, kick off a streaming app or Youtube, or play some Minecraft or something on my TV in bed, all comfy.
(tl;dw: it's total snakeoil audiophoolery)
I can look at a stack trace, go "oh, function X is misbehaving after being called by function Y, from function Z", and work out what's gone wrong from the context clues, and other debugger info. As a game developer, with codebases that are big, semi-monolithic codebases, it's essential, especially when code crosses the gameplay/engine and engine/kernel barriers.
