Why Use Lecithin?

So I have some extra weed this month and have been thinking about trying edibles. I stumbled upon a blog with a whole bunch of recipes. What caught my eye is that lecithin is highly recommended in some of their recipes. Other than being an emulsifier is there any other added benefit to adding lecithin? I just don't want to use my weed to make sub par edibles because i'm missing one ingredient. The specific recipe i'm referring to is https://www.canedible.ca/2019/01/28/mar ... ed-butter/
