2. Fun - You have proved that your CMA skill work in the ring and on the mat.
3. Health - You can live longer than others.

While there are some schools that believe one can not acquire any serious skill or neigong without holding Santi "for hours" a day, others claim that 15 to 20 minutes is already enough. There are also those who contend that practicing the 5-fists repetitively -- as suggested by some posters in this discussion -- rather than standing still is actually more beneficial.
