What use is the picture of your passport? It would be easy to fake.

It saves a bit of time for your embassy if you need a new passport urgently in another country.
> Safeguard Your Documents! Make two copies of all your travel documents in case of emergency. Leave one copy with a trusted friend or relative at home and carry the other separately from your original documents. To help prevent theft, do not carry your passport in your back pocket, and keep it separate from your money.

Ditto.
And in addition: peace of mind.
Having a copy may not do much from legal perspective, but I'm just less worried if I know it's there.
