Someone who may want to use only one connection and is already powering via USB. Something such as a classroom environment could be a perfect example of why to use RNDIS. In this case, you use fewer Ethernet connections, which could save on costs, and clutter.
To be sure there are many other possible use cases, use your imagination. Personally, I have had nothing but terrible experiences with RNDIS, but it is not exactly something I am familiar with. I expect when I get around to do some serious reading on the subject, many or all of these issues would go away.
