It might be useful when there is limited visibility of the ways using the
satellite imagery (for example, being blocked by clouds or trees), so it
becomes a confirmation that the way does indeed end there.
It can also may make it easier to visualize the streets if the city has a
lot of streets without exit. (JOSM properly renders nodes with noexit=yes)
