What is a good use for custom formatting?

What do you use it for?

I'm using MLO on Android only. I'm not sure yet, what to use custom formatting for. Automated formatting that's available on PC would be useful, but that's not available on Android. So I am looking for manual labelling with custom formatting only. I've put some Tasker automation together to easily format tasks with predefined custom formatting presets via one or two taps. I'm just not completely sure yet, what "dimension" am I missing that could be added with via formatting.

Thanks.

OK, so what I came with over weekend is sort of "emotional / life" category - essentials, comfort needs, likes, rewards, wants/goals. Of course not every task is formatted, only those where triggering this emotional correlate is important for for execution and where this execution needs this sort of help.

Too bad it's not possible to non-destructively multiple edit formatting of multiple tasks - i.e. I use highlight and / or font color for the above, it could be useful if I could also add font style (bold, underline) to this via multi-edit without clearing the existing formattting.
