Problem:
Why is there an option to include an intermediate post type when creating relationships with the betas of Types and Views that include the new post relationships workflow?
Solution:
If you want the relationship itself to store custom fields they need to be saved somewhere, and an intermediate post reflecting the connection between two other posts is the best place to do it.
For example if you have doctors and patients as custom post types in a many-to-many relationship, where patients are able to see different doctors and doctors obviously treat many different patients, then relationship effectively records appointments. And you would want the date and time etc. to be recorded for these appointments.
