“Smooth” is just to cap the intensity to avoid it going to infinity as you get very close to the light. Setting this to a very high value becomes equivalent to choosing a “constant” falloff.

“Linear” falloff is quite useful for making the lighting more uniform without having to add more lights. It’s a cheat, but so is a lot of 3D. ;)
