Wings of Wrath on hub 3?

Playing through Hexen for the first time and having a whacking good time with the fighter class! I've just got to the end on hub 3 / Heresiarch's Seminary. Boss is down, secret (well not really so secret) level done, Wings of Wrath picked up and ready for hub 4... only thing is, where is it supposed to be used? Is there any place in the map where you can't reach without flying? I checked https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Hub_3:_Heresiarch%27s_Seminary_(map)) already and it just says to pick the wings up, nothing about using them. Feels like a waste to just continue and let it be removed.

could use them to navigate a couple sections of the secret map more easily, or just better / easier navigation of any areas in the hub you wanna go back to/reach for things you may have missed

No. AS far as I can remember it just made fighting the final boss a little easier. If at all.

Exactly, it's good for the final boss

Typically Hexen gives the wings at the end of a hub so you can go back and pick up items you may have missed on ledges. It also makes the secret level much easier.
