It probably gets more useful as I level up the perk but right now I basically just use it to hear my character shout "calm down, starfish!" before taking some cheap shots at my victim

It's interesting, but yeah, a little disappointing that you don't get experience from it, nor can you do it on higher-levelled enemies.
However, at the second tier of those perks, you can incite the pacified enemy to attack.
They will begin to attack anything around them, generally. Which can be a little difficult if you're on a quest with a temporary companion, like the Bobbi No-Nose quest.
But it's nice to watch a Mirelurk fight a Mirelurk. And I can't wait until I can get a Super Mutant or a Raider to attack his allies.
Apparently the third tier lets you give them commands, like a companion, including to follow you. So you get an extra companion, although a mortal one.
But I don't know if this is true. That's just what I heard off of Reddit.
And they were talking about the Robotics Perk, which I believe acts the same way as Intimidate, but on Robots. I don't have it though to be sure, and its description is more vague, just saying you "hack the robot".

I think it's like companions with fighting, get knocked out during a raid and be knocked out for the rest of the raid, only coming back up when it is over.

The faster they kill an attack the less of your stuff is destroyed.

I love the robotics perk. You get an option to hack a robot while sneaking on it, you enter your pipboy, then use it like a terminal basically.
