What I usually use it for is to select different profiles I have for different lenses I own. If the selection tab in SET is still at the profile setting, all it takes is two clicks of the SET button and snapshot mode is active. Total pain. I wish there were a main menu selection in which snapshot mode could be truly disabled.
