For what purpose can this be used? Can a point to point link function with this subnet mask? It would be ok if the requirement for a network and broadcast IP were removed.

Yes, works fine (on an all Cisco network).

We're starting to use /31's on internal links. Links to third parties
are still /30's, as most other people are still wary.
