Yep . . . you guessed it.  It's for DoF.

At the magnification levels you can achieve with one, if the subject has any depth dimension (i.e., not flat copy work) you had best be able to seriously stop the lens down and pour in lots-a-light (and be willing to give up some resolution on the diffraction end of things if necessary).

I guess if you're shooting a millimeter long insect, you need depth of
field.
