I use them as intended: for convenience. Basically, I have a binding for this:

  (defun my/insert-heading ()
    (interactive)
    (end-of-line)
    (cond
     ((string-match (rx (and bol (0+ white) "- [")) (thing-at-point
'line t)) (command-execute 'org-insert-todo-heading))
     ((string-match (rx (and bol (0+ white) "-")) (thing-at-point
'line t)) (command-execute 'org-insert-item))
     (t (if (my/org-heading-collapsed-p) (evil-open-below 1))
(command-execute 'org-insert-heading) (evil-normal-state))))

and a similar function for sub-things. This makes it very easy to
insert (sub)headings/items/todo-items, all with just two bindings.

Sometimes that would have to be <M-RET> <M-RET> <M-right> when the
items in the list are seperated with a newline. That's an awful lot of
combinations for such a basic task, which I do quite often.

To me, these functions seem fundamental enough to warrant the
according out-of-the-box experience.

Best,
