Why?

Most ISPs set up reverse & forward domain names for pool addresses.
OK, I'm not an ISP, but it really seems to be a widely accepted and
endorsed policy, to the point that addresses not having a reverse DNS
often treated as suspicious.

What is the acceptable use case for forward zones, then?

See, ideally the zone should be served by my BIND server, it should be
authoritative for the zone. Why I can't use it as the authoritative
server for the zone is that BIND does not have a feature that the
other DNS server has (on-the-fly generation of IPv6 reverse & forward
records, without the need to store 2 * 2 ^ 64 records in zone files).
