I've never used these, what's the point versus a normal spacer?

It brings the 2 tiles level with each other so the tile is flush. You won't get uneven tiles.

You mean flush? Like the vertical plane because it's like a t shape or something? Instead of having to eye ball it?

Yes, they are like an upsidedown T that then has something that either screws to it or goes through it clamping down on both faces of the 2 tiles.

In our experience they made a huge difference in the proper leveling of the tiles. We tiled the whole ground floor of the house, and the part where we only used regular spacers isn’t as even as where we used the tile leveling system (fortunately it’s just a small part, we wised up pretty quickly) the system we used is made by Peygran; we were able to reuse much of the system and just needed to repurchase the plastic clips. It’s not cheap, but the result was worth it.
