This template allows having pure code somewhere in a page's source without disturbing the output. For example, variable definitions, or uses of the {{#seo:}} tag.
Consider the following:
First paragraph.
{{#lvardef: var1 | Value 1 }}
Second paragraph.
The variable definition in the middle will be parsed as an empty paragraph so the result will look like this:
First paragraph.
Second paragraph.
Using this template fixes the problem:
First paragraph.
{{hidden code|
{{#lvardef: var1 | Value 1 }}
}}
Second paragraph.
Result:
First paragraph.
Second paragraph.
