It provides a middle ground between Android's "always on" and "on while screen on" settings, as well as real-time monitoring of the state to make sure it stays where you want it.

In Financial War's situation, he could have Tasker launch a timed task to force wifi on, wait for a connection to be established, then launch a Folder Sync task.
I understood your suggestion. But if I want to sync my reading position it would need to be on always when I am reading. That would have meant that it would need to constantly turn it back on since it constantly turned itself off. It also would have been nice for it to remain on while I was in the Google play store, so it would have to constantly turn it back on there too.

ETA - I took when an app was loaded to mean while it was in use, not just when initially loaded.
