I've always thought that being able to model the physical world at multiple levels of abstraction was pretty essential for trying to interact with it in a less brittle way.

Moreover, having models of things that are interesting and relevant to humans seems pretty important for any system that interacts with humans.

And it always seemed reasonable that any system that aims to use natural language should be able to represent the meaning of the sentences it uses in a clear and understandable format.

Also "organizing the world's information" should make it usable in an automated fashion based on semantic models.
