They can fix/change documents...but the biggest reason for them is a dynamic link to information. Like using them to instantly add an address to a letter. If you see a smart tag in a letter, you can click it and go right to the web for further info...like stock quotes, info about a person...tons of stuff. They're very valuable. Unfortunately, few folks know/bother to learn how to use them. So for the majority of users, they're a nuisance. Too bad!
