With Fourier you can analyze oscillatory characteristics of function (frequency and phase). With Laplace you can also analyze amplification/attenuation.

Well, it depends on the project goals. For a GUI app I can agree but good luck writing a chess engine where data representation is hidden behind an abstract interface.
