What's the purpose of "Bluetooth snoop logging" option on Android Wear devices?

It's in the wearable's Settings menu, in the Developers Options section. I couldn't find any information about it, nothing in the documentation either.

What are the potential use case scenarios of this feature?

Note: to unlock the Developers Options section, tap 7 times on the About item.

It creates a log file of all the Bluetooth traffic to and from your device, for analysis purposes.

Edit: Adding @BrentM's comment:

The log file is saved to /sdcard/btsnoop_hci.log. Take a look at this question, it is not specifically for wear, but wear should follow the same work flow: Sniffing/logging your own Android Bluetooth traffic
