Service Solicitation Advertising Data in Bluetooth Low Energy

My question is about Service Solicitation. In BLE, there is an option of Service Solicitation in Advertising Data Packet. What is the meaning of Service Solicitation?? In which situation, we include Service Solicitation Data in Advertising Packet?

The idea is that when a device scans an advertising device, having a particular solicited service uuid in its advertising data, and the scanner itself has that service in its own gatt db, the scanner should connect to that device.

So basically it means that it advertises "anyone having this service, please connect to me".

But I don't think anyone actually uses this feature...
