Why are delimited continuations useful?[edit]

The introduction text refers to other terms, postulating that delimited continuations are better continuations. But why is this useful? Reading the code further, I cannot why one needs continuations for mathematical expressions.

After all, this page is named Delimited continuation -- not Why continuations should be delimited. As such, I think it should stand on its own.
