they also lock onto the flats of the nuts too, so if they start to back off its an easy visual that your nuts are loose because the little tabs point all sorts of way.

Easier than checking all those nuts are done up to the requisite 500ft/lb with a torque wrench brap brap brap brap braaaaaaaaaaaaaap!

I fixed something for you.

I'd always thought they were meant to interlock and prevent any one nut from backing out without tightening the 'paired' nut?
