One particular use case I'd like to bring up (that you did mention!) are couples as well as grad students. I met my husband in graduate school for our masters, but when we were looking for jobs, it was extremely difficult to find companies that accepted us both even though we applied for the same positions. Like, I would get into one company, but my SO would get rejected. Eventually, we settled for different companies in the same city, but it was SUCH A PAIN and stressful. The other alternative we looked at was just both working remotely. So, I would have loved something like this so we could've just applied together!

Also, I also agree that one-application should work. There's no reason that it's necessary to do so many interviews. Questions were pretty much the same and they weren't relevant to the job at hand, so why ask them? To assess my skill? Then, a single central application would do.

Still, I would like this for non-grads as well. So my husband and I can use it lest we do this entire thing again. Also agree that knowing someone intimate increases retention. I really dislike the company I work at, but it pays well and my family is here!
