[CQ-Contest] Reverse beacon of my own call?

I did a contest awhile back as Assisted just to watch the spots on the RBN 
of my call.

This gave me a good idea of when/where I was being heard and a guess as to 
how loud I might be.

There were no signals heard here on 10m.  I called CQ for about 5 minutes, 
saw that there were NO RBN reports and went back to 15m.

But most contests do make it clear, or at least somewhat clear, that using 
the RBN in anyway during the contest moves you into the (A) category.

OK, back in my hole,

What value or benefit do you perceive you will receive from acquiring
this information?
