That guy probably hasn't thought about it in the last 12 years so I'll jump in.
Most acts of aggression start out with a fair bit of posturing, flexing and pushing before real violence starts. It is during this stage where the arm drag excels. You can use the arm drag to neutralize a threat (bring a non-grappler into a grappling exchange) before anything serious happens.
I heard a Frank Mir interview where he was talking about his days bouncing, and he said almost the only thing he did was arm drag people and then RNC them, that he did it hundreds of times. And then set them down gently outside with a cup of water. It's a pretty funny interview actually.
