Other than saying "that tells the program reading the file what happened in the packet" - this shouldn't be thought of as Wireshark-specific - a flag of that sort makes sense; if there's some information that is necessary or every very helpful when processing a file, and the program that generates the file knows that information, the ideal is to have that information stored in the file somewhere that allows programs reading the file to get it.
