I'm not sure I understand your question perfectly, but I can use clones for
two purposes:
1. A cool colour or shape that TLG does not supply.
2. Hacking! Building in micro-switches, making cable tunnels and such
things.
But I am a Lego purist in that sense I never ever hack or modify a Lego
brick unless it's already broken.
