What is the point or advantage of using a cavalry screen?

This sequel to the award-winning Crown of Glory takes Napoleonic Grand Strategy to a whole new level. This represents a complete overhaul of the original release, including countless improvements and innovations ranging from detailed Naval combat and brigade-level Land combat to an improved AI, unit upgrades, a more detailed Strategic Map and a new simplified Economy option. More historical AND more fun than the original!

I use a screen for two purposes.  I will throw a cav way out front just to slow the enemy down while I deploy my forces or I use them as screens on the flanks to be sure the enemy doesn't dash around my rear without giving me time to prepare.  It won't stop movement through but it does slow it down.
