Unilateral training - training each side of the body separately.
Helps to create a better strength balance. It's fine and natural to Have a slight discrepancy from one side to the other. A glaring difference in strength is red flag for an injury waiting to happen and needs to be addressed. Especially important if you play a sport.
It's a natural way to work the core as essentially, what the core does is keep you stable when a force is trying to move in different directions, as is what happens with single limb work.
Because of the above factors, they can help to increase your big bilateral lifts and give you more well rounded strength and athleticism.
Make it a regular part of your training.
