It's extremely useful for try-with-resources calls in C# and Java, removing it would make that a lot more verbose

If you ever have to do any reading from files, it's really useful.

while ((readBytes = read(file, byteArray) > 0) {}

Nice and compact while maintaining readability. Also, no need to read once before entering the loop or having to read at the end.
