The reason is that I've always used it, and I'm not aware of
built-in replacements for its features. :)
For example, it binds SPC in the minibuffer to a command which makes
completion *go forward* instead of just completing the current word,
which enables e.g. M-x f SPC lib RET to run find-library, M-x isp
SPC c SPC d for ispell-change-dictionary, etc. I never use TAB for
completion in the minibuffer, SPC is much more convenient to type
(I use ido for buffer/file completion).
I also use the partial completion itself (I often use M-x kg RET for
kill-grep), but admittedly I think I could live without it.
