What's the benefit of linking my phone to my Chromebook?

I read an article about how to connect your Android device to a Chromebook, and I did it in my Chromebook settings, but what exactly does it do? Aside from the Smart Lock feature, I don't see any benefits.

The article I read made it sound like you could connect to your phone's data connection (or maybe mobile hotspot?) directly from the Chromebook, without having to manually turn on the hotspot or do anything with the phone, but I don't see anything like this. Am I missing something?
