Purpose of DLT Table table_properties > quality:medallion

Hi there, silly question here but can anyone help me understand what practical purpose does labelling the table_properties with "quality":"<specific_medallion>"? For example:

 

@Dlt.table(
  comment="Bronze live streaming table for Test data",
  name="bronze_test_table",
  table_properties={
    "quality": "bronze"
  }
)

 

I've seen examples where quality is set to bronze/silver/gold, but what can this be used for?
