I haven't seen many opportunities to use it on people other than those that the developers already figured you may have to become enemies with, so there really isn't a point to it except as a way to start combat with words instead of weapons, even though you'll just use weapons after using it anyway. You can't just go up to a trader or a random wastelander and go "Growl I'm intimidating," it has to be certain people, which really defeats the whole purpose of it. The only time I've ever seen it as an option was when interviewing the captured Legion soldier at McCarran, and even then using it would have been the opposite of what I wanted to do. Keep in mind that I have a really high speech stat so it isn't like that could be stopping the option from appearing.
