Overriding the ToString method can open your code up to different use cases, its stops the use for another function just to print details about a certain class. You can create shorter outputs to the screen by making sure you override ToString which will let you specify your own return like in the video you can display the details about a Person without having to write another function.
Theory aside, they are used to make your code a lot smaller and neater to read when you are doing something simple and it can help the readability and maintainability of your code when others or you (in the future) reads it again!
