I find my hands naturally gravitate towards that position anyway
Maybe it's from riding with hoods or my bars are too low

in the 90's, it was more leverage for an out of the saddle climbing position. Now, it's about the equivalent of hoods on modern road bikes, or pegs to hang small grocery bags from by squat guatemallans.

Another hand position. It's good for impaling walkers as well.

Your average dirt eater can't set up their cockpit that well for their riding position, but if you set it so you can brake from that position, why not?

BMX back up bars!

Are you trying to say you should mount your brake levers on your 90s bar ends? Who the fuck does that?

I put them on my old Trek because having two different positions to hold onto was more comfortable
