Mainly not waste too much power ;-)

I used these for a variety of low power, low speed, moderately high voltage 
purposes. For example:

Translating CMOS DAC outputs to higher and/or bipolar ranges.

Buffering DC test points and temperature sensors.

Thermal control loops.

One advantage was that R&QA was reasonably happy with this choice, partly 
because it was available in a brittle ceramic package that was supposedly more 
reliable than plastic.

I'm tentatively going with LT1078 for new designs. We'll see how loudly R&QA 
complains...
