think of several uses. Anyway here it is FYI.

I've used this stuff before when troubleshooting bad gasket joints.  It's
great for finding out whether an assembly is too warped to get good
compression on the gasket, whether it is making contact at all, whether the
bolt torque is giving the preload you want, etc.

I suppose it would be very useful in fitting up a one-of-a-kind custom piece
to see if you need to spend more $$ to have it ground or lapped flatter.
