Strictly cosmetic. About the only time one would be useful would be on a rachetting shifter. Had one of them on a 65 nova once.

Start in 1st, then slam it hard straight back into 2nd, then straight forward to third, then straight back again to 4th.
Then lift the lock out bar to down shift, one at a time. 4th, then 3rd, then 2nd, etc.

Not good on a track car unless the track is really long and really straight.
