Heirloom seeds have another value--they grow plants that produce more seeds that will grow the same plant that will produce...--they haven't been hybridized (or genetically altered) to the point where they won't produce seeds that produce the same plants.
Those of us in the "self-reliance" (some are survivalists, others are just not too happy about "developed countries' morbid--and expensive--reliance on technology) community think in terms of "what would we do if..." (severe climate change, failure of civilization, failure of major technologies like the electrical grid, etc.)
Heirloom seeds, especially for edible plants, are a big part of our sense of being prepared.
