You can also unscrew it though.

but why would I if I can just snake it?
unscrewing it I have to clean up everything afterwards. I also have to patch the ceiling or re-cover the access hole.
with a snake, I just snake it. it goes through the plumbing, and I’m done.
unless I’m missing something.

You have free access to this piece as it’s just below. You put a bucket below, unscrew, empty it, screw and you’re down with the clogging.
The goal of this plastic receptable is to avoid costly clogging down the line by intercepting it locally. And also recover object that fall like ring while watching your hands.
