I know how to use it. I just want to know the reason for this.

In my opinion, the principal use for that option is that it makes picking the width on-screen  (rather than typing in a value) easier.  Calling for the Half-width option gives a rubber-band off the latest vertex location [which is at the mid-line  of the Polyline path], and from there you can pick what will be the location on the edge  of the resulting overall width.  Sometimes that is determined by something you can Snap to, so you don't need to know the actual value, etc.
