What is the point of this little breast pocket near my left shoulder?

I have like 10 t-shirts with a tiny breast pocket right over my left nipple, and what am I supposed to put in there? I’ve never put fucking anything in this pocket, but it’s always there with a tiny tag from whatever manufacturer made the shirt.

    Yeah you’d have a pocket protector, a plastic or leather pouch holding your pen/s so they wouldn’t leak on your shirt or your compass would catch. Keeps them from falling out if you bend over. Usually have a compass, pen, pencil, ruler etc depending on your job.

    My parents/older family members/friends and teachers had them before everything was computers and phones.
