Apparently I missed something. What's the purpose of doing this?

Sound deadening.
But the added benefit for me personally is to add a little weight to my bike so the front end doesn't come up when I come off the light.

EDIT. apparently that last pic doesn't want to show up. you get the idea.
The thing about your install that REALLY pushes my **** button is that the DYNAMAT logos are running in every direction. Next time, please run them all horizontally, right side up and make your splices match the logos (like wallpaper).

I used material without any logo, so logo-matching wasn't necessary. That saved me about 2 days on the installation.
