For emergencies and for marketing. For marketing because it sounds really cool (for instance, the new cameras can shoot at ISO 25,600!!!!).

But because the resulting noise and banding and colors are awful, such high ISOs still exist purely in the Emergency department. Any time you have ANY other option for increasing the light, use it first.

Still, it is nice to know you'll never miss a shot for lack of light.
