Comment (by skostysh):

  As for a use case, the only one I
  can think of is: suppose I start writing a note. Then I decide I want to
  start over. I would want to select all text inside the note and delete it.
Another use case: Say I'm typing an equation "x+y" and I realise I should have been typing "1/(x+y)". I select all, cut, insert the fraction and paste back in the appropriate place. Another use case is merging the contents of insets, for example if you want to replace a table of insets with an inset containing a table. None of these occur if you know the exact formatting you want before you start, but in practice that doesn't happen very often.
