It would serve my main use case of allowing <article>s by respected authors to be rendered before other <article>s or otherwise style them. I believe semantically stating authorship to be useful e.g. for searching a collection of documents for articles by a specific author, or conversely, blacklisting. Also, hCard fn allows for abbreviation of names I would find handy when screen space is scarce. But I guess those are less important than the first one.
