Sacrifice a piece to develop another, move a knight to where you can capture it and promote your pawn- The sacrificing isn't a move that would be used extremely often, but it does add more strategy to trades and sacrifices.

Could you give an example of a position where it could happen? And it would be considered a win, but I can't quite think of position where that could occur, since any stalemate-giving piece could simply be moved.

Ah, I see the problem. But the main point of the self-check rule is to force unique strategy in positioning, so I understand what you mean and I will change the wording to clarify.
