Its purpose is to delimit the result block. Imagine you re-eval the code
block, and that (by default, BTW) the result block must be overridden by the
new value, Babel must have a way to identify what to delete first.

The only other solutions are:

- use the option =:results raw=, but you can't do any replace anymore (of old
  results by new results)

- =(setq org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output 1)=, to force Org to put the
  output enclosed in a #+begin/end_example block.

Best regards,
  Seb
