I agree this question should be asked, but there are valid use cases.
I recently had a Book model and Contributor model which I joined with
a Contribution table, which in turn had a ForeignKey into a
ContributitionType model. This lets me add more types of contributions
to a book in the future, such as author, editor, translator,
illustrator et.c.
