I would use something like this frequently. A couple of examples:
- annual events, such as anniversaries and birthdays. I'd like
a SCHEDULED item a week or two ahead telling me to buy a
present
- every month there's a banking transaction I do that I'd like
SCHEDULED
In addition, there are periodic events I have where the current diary
support is fine, but even for this information I would rather keep it
in org format and mixed with relevant org files.
