Sometimes in wars, to stave off descension attacks, people need to convert their income into cache, which can then be channeled into Life Force Reserves. If all your income planets are untrained, and your cache is running low, you may have some problems restoring your life force reserves, and thus be easier to be descended.

As JD says, now that raid no longer works up there its only real purpose is to stop someone from earning an income in times of war. You wouldn't use it on a farm because that would stop the very thing your after farming for.....DMU.
When your at war with someone after you take out their defense/covert/assassins and sabotage their strike you can use this to destroy their income and prevent them from repairing stats or buying LF to prevent themselves being descended. If you can revolution enough planets you can make it almost impossible for them to be able to be an effective part of the war on ascended.

If you have any smaller players in an alliance it can be good practice for them once the account is trashed to let them revolution the account every few turns to make sure there is no chance of rebuilding. It helps them learn the ways of the game plus it keeps an opponent from being able to do anything until after the war is over.
