Why is it important to record audio of silence in the area in which you are filming?

You want to make sure it is perfectly quiet before you begin filming.

It can be used to show the crew what it means for the set to be silent.

The editors can use it to cancel out excessive noise in other shots in the editing process.

All areas have unique "silence" since there is always some background noise.
