When Is This Useful?

One of the best reasons for temporarily disabling AOD is battery life. Apple claims both the Series 5 and Series 6 get 18 hours of battery life after a full charge, but that includes the AOD. If you disable it, you boost your battery life, as the watch doesn't need to display something on-screen at all times.
Sure, you could disable the AOD entirely and enjoy your extended battery life, but many of us like using the AOD for convenience. You can still strategically disable it for those times where the battery is more important than convenience, like when you're 10% or below or you know it'll be a while before you can get the watch on a charger.
But it's not just battery life — there are times when an AOD just isn't practical or appropriate. Maybe you're at a presentation where the lights are off, and you don't want your watch, however dim, to be distracting. You might be in class and want to make sure nobody decides your Apple Watch is akin to having your iPhone out. Maybe you need to focus and don't want your watch face distracting you every minute.
Whatever the reason, quickly disabling the AOD can come in handy.
