I think it's for shutting down the internal monologue for people who can't do it by will. If you can do it yourself, do you know if shutting down your internal monologue also cuts back on habitual muscle tension?

I notice that level of internal monologue and tension in my jaw are strongly correlated, and I can affect either by manipulating the other.
