So you can delegate to your darkvision player, who presumably can see everything, move your players tokens at their behest. Also works for lessening your work load for summoned creatures, animal companions, dominated creatures, etc. | |

Also my player's had some hesitancy about letting me control everything. They like controlling their tokens. | |
