Building on the points about comparing this to the bird breakers, this is useful for a) cheaper ice. and b) 2 ICE of the same type on a server. This is because with the bird breakers, there's a flat cost - 6-7 credits, + the click to reinstall. With this, using it on low-cost ice like Vanilla, Eli, etc means one makes much more money.
Specifically on Los of course. Otherwise there'd be no reason to derez free ice
