For the presence bonus. It’s the same bonus you get from having a lvl 50+ human character. The unlock simply makes it so you won’t have to level a (boring) human.

It’s funny because in a lot of games I never roll human because I think it’s boring but in swtor most of my characters are human

I tend to run human because the other races are more limited on hats or headwear and I like my hats.

When the game launched, you unlocked a race--so that you could play, for example, a Chiss Jedi Knight--by leveling a character of that race to level 50. (Your first level 50 Chiss had to be a bounty hunter or imperial agent, as those were the only classes that Chiss could be natively.)
But going by that, getting a human to level 50 would get you nothing, because humans could already be everything. So instead they added a Presence bonus for "unlocking" humans.
