What is the purpose of the unused nodes list?

[d.healey]

When I click the X to remove a node from my network it shows up in this list, why?

@d-healey If you now try to add another node, you'll see your unused nodes there and they'll pop up first in a search as well. I always clean them all up... No idea why this feature is here. Undo exists so it's not a failsafe...

Yep I noticed that, but why...

How?

Open an empty node browser and click on the trash icons.

I genuinely can't think of a reason.

@d-healey Is that more like a philosophy question? I guess none of us really think about all those unused nodes.

It will save groups of nodes, so it can be useful if you've deleted a complex chain and want it back without repeatedly clicking undo.
