If you slide the head all the way to the end of the bar, you can use a Sliding Tee to turn an attached socket just like you would use a hinge handle/flex head ("breaker bar") or ratchet (or in the old days, an L-handle) with as much or as little swinging room as those handles would be afforded in the same space. If you keep the head in the middle, and you have a wide space around the nut or bolt, you can use it to turn an attached socket like a crank. If it's any consolation, I bet a lot of guys would consider them redundant.
In the middle position, the handles have enough balanced weight you can give it a spin and run a free running nut all the way in or out, and they don't hinge unexpectedly when using a cheater bar.
