I admit that i don't have an actual use case. I expect that crazy
composers like Mike (hello Mike! :)) could want to make the staff
progressively bigger and bigger each measure, for example as a fancy
way of indicating global crescendo sustained over many measures. But
that's just a speculation.

I don't have concrete examples either, but I can think of two practical
use cases:
Temporarily changing staff size may be useful in pedagogical sheets. And
you could make it useful when writing "dialogue" like parts, i.e. when
two or more instruments or singers sing/play alternatingly. Then it may
be helpful for sight-reading when your own part is on maginfied parts of
the staff.
