As far as I can see, you'd use that for systems of linear equalities, but for systems of linear inequalities with a linear objective function, it's not suitable. I may be wrong though :)
There's a linear [1] reduction from one problem to the other and vice versa. [1] The transformation itself is a linear function, and it takes O(n) time, too.
