I haven't used its handwriting OCR feature so genuinely curious. Does it not show a single piece of text? If not, what value does the OCR handwriting provide? Is it solely for the search feature?

Yep it seems to be, it indexes every possibility that the handwriting might be so that if you search for it then it comes up. You can see this if you dig through the XML it exports.
