"...are there any attributes that would make this tube more useful for today's DIY'er? Besides its give away price?"
It's only advantageous for replacement as original equipment. Fender used them years ago. I wouldn't consider building new gear around this tube when the 6V6 and 12V6 are so plentiful.
