You actually watch the C code change as you edit with the patch. This for me makes it double super cool

In the future:
- You want to program visually and get output as source code for use in other programs which you are working on as a developer

tl;dr - This offers a fantastic means for Audio Unit/VST developers to prototype and even export working code.
