Well, to pick a nit: many times one has to model a multi-machine
situation on a single machine; after everything is debugged, then
various pieces are installed on various machines.
It makes sense in that situation to use tramp/scp and webdav/http even
locallly.
Nick
PS. For another example, sometimes I use tramp/scp to edit local files
as a different user than the owner of the emacs process, e.g. files
owned by root, particularly when there is a number of them that need
to be changed and they are in the same directory: use tramp to open
the directory as root and then dired to open files. Most of the time
however, I do such minor changes with "sudo ed" in a shell buffer
:-)
