The practical use is elevation of the professional status of Andy Clark, and ultimately to sell articles, books, and public appearances.
Can it be anything else in this world? It is far too nebulous to nail down in any concrete manner, so it's practical application is a money grab, and little more. I bet Andy knows this too, but a philosopher's got to eat, has to promote themselves professionally, and owns an ego too. Why not?
