To be honest, my photography days are some 25+ years in the past, but I don't quite see how something that is optical problem of the lens has any good purpose.

Some artistic photos can make good use of some "defects" and "unwanted" effects from some lenses... but that is quite out of the standard and serve specific purposes depending on the photo.

Can you show one photograph that makes good use of chromatic aberration. All I can find online is how to avoid it.

There are a lot of popular effects in movies, yet I don't think chromatic aberration is one of them. It's been showing up more since the move to digital cameras that suffer more from chromatic aberration than film.

Anyway it seems dusty lenses are on the retreat, that got quite bad at some point as well.  Except in VR when my glasses and the headset are dusty, no need to add it in game as well :) CA will go too once the next unwanted effect becomes the new thing.
