Well, perhaps...

1) The local scene may be non-existent or unavailable due to a person's need for privacy. That person may still have a r/t partner; they just may not participate in the larger r/t community that may or may not be available to them.

2) It is nice to engage in discussion with a global community of intelligent, creative people with common interests. New friends and insights are always welcome.

3) Sometimes a couple may not be so lucky as to be able to be r/t 24/7 due to other commitments. O/l can be helpful (and obviously significantly cheaper than the phone) for staying in touch.
