When is map useful (as apposed to noremap)

If I understand correctly, map commands (nmap, imap...) allow the resulting action to be affected by any other key bindings that happen to have been made. On the other hand, their noremap counterparts act as if no other mappings have been made. I can't think of any situations where one would want the result to be affected by other bindings, since this would be very hard to maintain. Are plain maps used much? Why?
