Comment (by bgamari):

 Yes, it's used in instances defined in `GHC.Generics`. e.g.,
 {{{#!hs
      instance (KnownSymbol n, SingI f, SingI r)
          => Constructor ('MetaCons n f r) where
        conName     _ = symbolVal (Proxy :: Proxy n)
        conFixity   _ = fromSing  (sing  :: Sing f)
        conIsRecord _ = fromSing  (sing  :: Sing r)
 }}}
