What's in it for you is that when you write:-

   "I love Norweigians."

And then sign your document:-

   [ :authorOf this; :nationality "Swedish" ] .

People can tell that you're being sarcastic to the extreme.

My contrived example aside, I hope the principle is clear: the benefit to
the author is that their information has less of a chance of being
misinterpreted once the document it read in a wider context than that which
the author intended, or was aware of.
