Say you have a document you are working on in LaTeX over a few weeks. You might have the command line for compiling, bibtex, and git in one pane, then vim or equivalent in another.
Now say you will be moving between home, office, and traveling. If the tmux session is hosted at work you can connect from anywhere and be in the same workspace with the same command history. If you have a dozen other projects happening at once this system can also be a big help as far as organization.
Thanks, connecting to a remote tmux session makes a lot of sense to me. It hasn't been a significant need in my work so far, but it's something useful to keep in mind when those scenarios arise.
