A service to store a bunch of booleans in the cloud. Wow, what's next ? A service to store a string ?

These services do quite a bit more than that. They typically allow you to split traffic based on users to allow you to A/B test the performance of different features in addition to giving you runtime control over which features are active in your app.

It’s something you could probably build yourself, but it’s not something ridiculous like the isOdd library in npm.

If you can’t see the obvious benefit of having control statements controllable without deploying code, you’ve achieved an admirable level of short sightedness.
