What are its uses in the real world?

Honestly, it’s massively blown out of proportion. It is a mathematical relationship which describes the ratio between a regular Pentagon’s side length and diagonal length. It crops up a lot in geometry.
There’s a lot of woo and nonsense about it being related to the shapes and structures of different things – in most cases its bad pattern fitting or just plain nonsense. There are some examples of it cropping up in nature, but no more than other relationships
