Same reasons as laundry conditioner with the added benefit of removing static from clothing that’s been run through a clothes dryer.

This matches my understanding. Dryer sheet are fabric softener that works in your dryer and they also reduce static electricity.
You can remove static electricity from clothes via contact with bare metal. I use a metal clothes hanger because it is a convienient shape/size but any metal will work. I thought about removing paint from the front of my dryer and rubbing clothes on that. Or use bare electrical wire which you could connect to ground in an outlet.
