When you care more about getting it done quickly than legibility and you know your functional programming muscle memory a millimeter above good enough to do it in one take.
Also the "i=>i" idiom to filter nulls (or empty strings here), however prevalent it may be, weakens code legibility as opposed to a filter condition written more literally, or ideally if the API has a built in is_null (or is_empty) function intended to be named as a lambda.
Separately to that, for dynamic types it irks me if "i=>i" also throws out zero, false or such. Even if intended, it does so illegibly!

Even more worthless in 5 years, when you have to come back to it to fix something.
