Basically. This just simplifies a process.
Most of the time when you want a template, you have to add the template and add a plugin. This is just something that lets you do it automatically so you won't have to create it. I have a lot of sandbox ideas, so this was useful for me. I create alternate templates (modifying each one slightly) and use it for testing - rather than changing whole blocks of code, I just change the template name.

No offense taken. I hope I have cleared things up.
