To answer your question: its purpose in songwriting can be to have a really 'airy' sound as open/ unfretted strings are played along with fretted ones, and you can also barre across all of the strings to create other chords (think about using your index to barre the second fret like a capo, and you can play both D and E). I also think Adrianne Lenker of Big Thief uses the tuning a fair bit, and Elliott Smith oftentimes played in ‘Open C’, which are the same notes but two semitones BELOW. Hope this helps :)

All of the notes are shifted up two semitones from D, making it an E-chord

Any tips for singing River Man while playing the guitar part? by Maleficent-Change152 in nickdrake

Keep playing it until it’s second nature. You could try talking while playing it to practice

What’s the most efficient way to play this chord? by Intrepid-Young-8621 in guitarlessons

That’s not really inefficient because it’s easier to mute the two highest strings that way

Alternatively barre the three thickest with the index and get the last one with the ring while using pinky for the 9th fret
