More precisely it allows to choose the display language at run time and even to
change it at run time.
It is the explicit goal of this method.
The use case for that is a web application running on a server. Several
different users may connect to it and have different languages settings (one
french user and one english user for example). The messages should be tailored
for all these users. The proper settings is retrieved from the HTTP protocol.

No. It's a user setting.
