Turn off/on incoming video setting

Hello, I am looking for specific details about the Turn off incoming video setting that is available in the More Actions menu during a Teams call. What are the use cases for this? I'm assuming to use...

    I can think of two benefits, really just two sides of the same coin.  One is that it would reduce your bandwidth requirement which may result in a lower cost, depending on your package with your ISP.  A second benefit would be in the scenario where the audio quality is poor or cutting out for you during a video call.  Turning off the incoming video then should improve the audio quality of the call.
