I personally use it for one of two things depending on the dive.
I might use it for self defense if I feel threatened by a shark or other predator. Or, I might use it for obtaining dinner.
Powerheads are illegal because of the misuse by others to commercially fish with them.
I believe our waters are plentiful and that the use of a powerhead to hammer a big fish for my personal dinner use is plenty of justification for the personal use of one regardless the local (illegitimate) law. Besides, it's a good way to bag a game fish without maming it and having it wander off somewhere as a wounded cripple. The hole is not too different from a spear and I have never been challenged about that.
I use it with discretion and have a good time. I don't "over do it."
