What is the significance of the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium Model if it has no practical use?

OpenStudy (blues):

Any model is a theoretic ideal. It is useful for making approximate predictions about populations that meet the necessary assumptions. And it is also useful for seeing how different a population is from the Hardy Weinberg assumptions, although using that difference as an actual quantitative measure of how much it differs from the model is not what I recommend you do.

can you list the conditions it MUST meet for it to be useful?
