I noticed in OR that there is a section for this. Can someone explain to me what would be the most realistic settings? And I know it helps the train in turns but what else is it actually good for?

I set mine at level 1 and 300 meter length.
If set at shorter lengths there is a negative visual effect on curved switches.
Experiment to set it to what you prefer, my setting are a starting point.
Superelevation is applied when running the Sim by actually twisting the track along the centerline, making one edge of the ballast lower the other edge higher.
This has consequences if the track is set close to bridges and such. I've had to lower the bridges throughout my LIRR route and have needed to do so at many places along the rebuilding of the PRR-East. The default height above terrain is enough to avoid this 'edge dipping' visual effect.

On the The Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor there is a Tablet. On it is written:
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
the wretched refuse of your teeming shore, send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
