They were useful in a very narrow set of circumstances.

There are many circumstances that they are useful for.

1. propellant leak at the pad
2. loss of commanding of the vehicle or GSE
3. fire at the tank farm
4. pending over pressurization of a vessel
5. unsafe cabin atmosphere

I'll modify it fromVERY then. :-)

Point is that the likelihood of them actually being useful is still fairly
low.

They're as much a practical solution as they are a political. Sort of like
the escape trunks on submarines.

No, wrong they are not at all like escape trunks. It is not just for
the flight crew nor the latter part of the countdown. The ground crew
can use them
