>doesnt kosher salt have virtually the same use???
Yes, it does. It's all just hype like the Himalayan salt hype from a few years ago that's over now. In reality they're only useful for decorating or very rarely rather specific cooking techniques. But for everyday use they're worthless and generally worse because in terms of iodine content which can be a problem if you don't get enough iodine from other sources. According to the latest news, this actually became a real problem recently.
