I use worktrees and I wondered the same question, so far here's what I like:
git worktrees listcan show all the worktrees, you have for this same repo (not crazy value, I know)git fetchapplies to all your worktreesgit stash / applycan work across worktrees, so I can stash in one and apply it to anotherYou're limited to a specific branch per worktree and many don't like that but I typically work from a detached HEAD anyways.
And cherry-pick commits done on different work trees without syncing them first. Or rebase or mergeworkk done on one work tree with others. Or check commit logs or diff them.
