Although I don't use the memo function very often but I check the
accuracy of the OTF auto on my OM4 and 4Ti in this way, you can also
compare the film reflectance with this method. The memo hold the
exposure data of the first shot (until you clear it manually) and it
is OTF in auto mode.

And what you say agrees with what the manual says. "This function enables the camera to store in memory the exposure level at which a picture was actually taken." An interesting aspect is that the EV is memorized so that you can change the aperture(to vary the DOF, say) and it will be compensated for so that the correct exposure is maintained.
