Now in public preview: Assign Seats in Together Mode

I am struggling to see any practical application for this - i.e. why use time on deciding where people are going to sit in an digital room? I see various blogposts on this new feature, but have yet to see anyone providing a use case for it. Possibly one could see some use for it if it is a very large meeting and you want quickly to be able to look at certain people during the meeting. But a lot of job if the meeting is big, and people still can just turn of their video if they like.
