Why use a batch macro

What are reasons to use a batch macro? 

 

I understand the use case of a batch macro when getting multiple files into a flow that have different formats.

This would be difficult to achieve with a batch macro.

 

What are other use cases of a batch macro that cannot be achieved with a normal join tool as well?

Or are there reasons why a batch tool could be better in such situations?

@apathetichell "dynamic" (a big word for Alteryx, but let's keep it as it is) interaction is about building a user interface, it can be an analytic app, so still I am waiting for a particular example far a BATCH macro.
