No one who understands security would use this, because if they did it would mean a third party would now have all their keys (which is quite the opposite one wants when encrypting data).
It's for educational purposes only. You are right - Nobody should use this for hiding secrets! This is why I enjoy crypto done purely on the frontend, preferably with JS and no leakage to third parties.
