I believe the purpose of these lights (as well as the ones at door handles) are to provide just enough illumination as to allow locating various non-illuminated components...or at least I think that's what the original purpose was. As more manufactures added these lights, it became a styling point, which ended up leading to the vehicles that now have (in my opinion) far to much "mood" lighting...in infinate color choices no less.

A few years back I had a Cadillac as a rental that had the multicolor mood lighting; couldn't help but be reminded of a gentlemans club....
