why filled alignment for cells?

Hi,

А horizontal alignment option for cells of Calc has choice 'filled' (right-
click on a cell → Format cell... → Alignment tab → Text alignment →
Horizontal). It repeats the cell contents (number and text) until the visible
area of the cell is completely filled or cuts the string to fit the cells.
Could anybody explain how it can be used for real-world example, please? I
cannot figure out any reason for using this option.
Thank you in advance.

This feature was used for making horizontal rulers in text mode spreadsheets and is kept for roundtrip compatibility.

Hi Urmas,

Thank you a lot. I had not thought about that.
