I didn't ask what it is good for. I asked what's literally the use. Talking about their situations, needs, et al, means jack shit when they don't even have a vote among the many where legislature is concerned. It's nothing but a non-binding PR stunt.

The Native American Nations are not States in the Westphalian sense, hence any treaties with them do not bind the US State in the international legal order.
Per the US Constitution, treaties to which the United States is party shall, along with the Constitution itself and laws made pursuant to the Constitution, be the supreme law of the land. International legal order doesn't really come into it, America's own laws require it to abide by treaties.

If you read the dicta of Missouri v. Holland carefully, in the section where Associate Justice Holmes goes to the question of the correct interpretation of the Treaty Clause, it is clear from his reasoning that he and the Supreme Court view the Treaty Clause as essentially holding the same meaning as a treaty in the international legal sense (ie between States).
Otherwise, any contract signed by the US government is a treaty. Every contract signed with a federal contractor is a 'treaty'. This obviously isn't true. A 'treaty' is a binding contract between States, and the different Native American tribes and nations are not States and lack the legal competence to enter into international treaties.
