Default Dremel

Since all you RC-people seem to like these Dremel tools so much I'm thinking about getting one.
What I don't get is what you use these Dremels for that makes them almost "mandatory"?
I mean, some people here on the forum say they own five of 'em ???

I use a cordless powerdrill for drilling holes, a #11 hobby knife for cutting, sandpapers for sanding and a small handsaw for sawing balsa and plywood.
OK, I might be a rookie, but I have successfully assembled/built:
-GP PT40 ARF
-2 x Durastick's
-2x Scratchbuilt F4U foamie combat planes (.21 size)
-WM Skyraider Mach2
-Modelfly Beaver
-Raptor 50 heli

...And to be honest, my tools have been sufficient and I don't understand why everybody is so fired up about the Dremels?
Please enlighten me and give me a good reason to buy a new toy!
