I recently learned that you can make many apps such as browsers portable on a USB drive and I was wondering, aside from being able to take it on the go, what other advantages does portable apps have? I know it won't take up much storage. Is there any privacy benefits?

I have a utils die full of portable apps. They are just things I use occasionally that I don't want to actually install, like a cd writer, sysinternals, benchmarking apps, mkv tools, and more.
