I can add a section on other uses if more motivation is desired. Mark Andrews had some uses as well that hopefully, he can share. If others have uses in mind that this solves I would love to hear about them.

Specifically, there are two applications mentioned in the draft.

1. When a DNS server receives a dynamic DNS Update from a client registering its name after having received an IP address from an DHCP lease, the length of the DHCP lease can be tied to the length that the DNS address/PTR records stay in the authoritative server.

2. When an RFC 6763 DNS-SD service is registered (including PTR, SRV, & TXT records), these records can timeout according to the lease lifetime contained in the update lease EDNS(0) option.

These are not theoretical. They solve practical problems that exist today. I think there are others associated with existing problems for sleeping devices and IoT devices that I need to research to more clearly answer your specific question but I think these two already fulfill that requirement.
