Reply to comment by TableGamer in ELI5: How is that Pantone colors don't have direct RGB counterparts? by ExternalUserError

Industrial design. Linus at Linus Tech Tips uses Pantone plastic chips to ensure their vendors make merch with the exact colors in LTT’s color standards manual for their creative team.

Personally I use Pantone’s Bridge book which has swatches that are consistent from print, video, web, and social media because I deal with corporate clients with documentation up the wazoo on how to use their brand name in their project

They have a pretty good video explaining why they use Pantone

Which is fine until Pantone updates their Bridge book and create new CMYK match formulas.
