Well, it becomes handy if you want to specify the cascading order of styles.
In HTML you can write

  <link rel="stylesheet" ...>
  <style>...</style>
  <link rel="stylesheet" ...>

and when properly closed also in XHTML, but if you're using the
'xml-stylesheet' PI, you need to be able to reference internal styles to
achieve the same.
