What is DMZ for?

I was looking through my settings and saw DMZ, I can't exactly understand how it's supposed to work. Other routers I've seen seem to have it work where you can add things like IoT devices or mail servers or something to it and then it's so they're separate to the rest of the network or something like that....
How is it supposed to work and what are some use cases people use it for? I've seen some people seem pretty **bleep** off about the Hub 5 apparently not having it or something..

    Most domestic customers do not use the DMZ for any purpose.

    "VM Hub 5x" for XGS-PON connections lacks Modem mode.

    What is the actual problem you wish to solve ?
