It certainly is also useful to read in G and play in F, if you are a fiddler
and want to play along with NSP "F" chanters and, as Matt says, the more you do
it the easier it becomes.

In my not necessarily humble opinion, transposing at sight is a useful
skill for any piper curious to look beyond the confines of a single
tradition, given that the nominal pitch of the 6-finger note is a
movable feast. As with any other skill, you get better the more you do
it.
