My reading of it was "like CTRL-O (execute one command, return to Insert mode) but don't move the cursor", was something like "<esc>{one Normal-mode command}gi" to resume insertion where you left off. My example above shows a useful example (as you state "it would not be useful"), where I wanted to yank the current word/sentence/paragraph into a register (for subsequent insertion with i_CTRL-R), resuming insertion where I left off.
So if it is truly just a matter of behavior when the cursor is past the EOL, perhaps the docs should reflect that narrow definition. It might also be worth noting any behavior changes with various 've' settings.
