What's the point of Layer Sync?

You would think at first glance that it would simply keep both layers in time sync, but when you click it it seems to make both layers exactly the same clips… how is that of any use when they become identical? They both would be playing the same animations. Can someone shine some light on this feature? Thanks.

They both would be playing the same states in sync but in each state you can use different AnimationClips. Layer in sync is just instance of synced layer.

Check out manual for example with layer with normal walking and layer in sync with wounded walking:
