My understanding is that this ticket allows national travel.

In any case, the point is that it is not clear to me what actual need this fulfills.

But only regional trains. To me the biggest advantage is not having to worry about what tickets to buy in foreign cities.

To give people an idea what regional trains means:

On regional trains you can travel Germany from north to south in less than 14 hours with 5 changes as opposed 8 hours with 2 changes for 125 EUR one-way on long-distance trains.

With the 49 EUR/month ticket you can hop off the train anytime you are tired of the journey. Can't do that with the 125 EUR one-time, one-way long-distance train ticket.

I totally see young and elderly people do this on regional trains.
