Philosophy, in its most basic linguistical sense, is about searching for truth. Originally, it encompassed all science. For various reasons much of it has spun-off into its own sciences (or in some cases pseudo-sciences).
So it is "for" answering those questions left within its realm or searching for the truth in those matters. Like Bono I reject any idea about there being any need for usefulness in it. It is useful to the extent that people find it worthwhile and many still clearly do.
