I think the idea is that you can create abstractions on-the-fly from your main patch, for example one which plays a big buffer~, and you may want to get all that memory back at some point. Simply closing the patch with the buffer~ won't work, but "dispose" will kill it and free the memory.

You definitely wouldn't want to use it in your main patch...
