I've been reading about Google Analytics views but still not sure why I would use them.

I'm the only person in the company who understands and uses Google Analytics. We have no subdomains. Is there any reason why I would want to use views?

Google Analytics has been going for some years now and I just created a copy of the original view but this has zero data, so I can't see how it would benefit me.
