Use this to collect values, like usage names, parcel IDs, or property tags, into a group with no duplicates, when you only care whether something is present, not how many times it shows up or in what order.
Set vs. List: a List (array) keeps items in order and can hold duplicates, and you access items by position, like "the 3rd item." A Set has no order and no duplicates. Adding an item that's already there does nothing, and there's no "position" to ask for. Sets are for asking "is this here?" and for comparing groups of things; Lists are for ordered, step-by-step sequences.
