Sure. There are many cases where evaluation in buffer helps to insert text into buffer. I am writing consulting related emails since decades. Sometimes real time information has to be fetched, recalculated and English or other language sentences constructed in the buffer and expressions may not be repetitive or already defined as functions. That is where inserting into buffer helps. It also helps when analyzing as visibility in the buffer is better then short message display in the minibuffer.
