E-ink monitors are very good for email, document editing, reading docs, and coding. Which is a large part of how many people use their computers. They can eliminate eye strain for people who are really suffering using regular screens (this can be from many causes and it varies between individuals - reflection, PWM, refresh rate etc...).
E-ink monitors have massively improved this year with the release of colour options, and people figuring out how to optimise their OS e.g. switching off temporal dithering.
Still nowhere near good enough for fast moving things like video, so I use hotkeys to use my laptop screen for this kind of content.
