Embarrassingly, a common use is reading small print when I don't have, or can't be bothered putting on, my reading glasses - so I guess the answer is to illuminate close up things. The second most common use is finding a keyhole in the dark.
The most common use of the high mode is when people say 'oh wow, is that a torch?' and I immediately blind them with it because I'm cool like that.
