If all they wanted to do was get a list of pages that transcludebthe template, then Special:WhatLinksHere should do just as well, no installations necessary. But they want to find instances where is something specific and, I'd agree,  is the best option. But if you want to do the same kinda thing but without a tenplate involved — like get a list of all pages with the string, or maybe   with -regex enabled (meaning Lx, then one or more digit characters) — then I'd say install PWB; it'll come in handy a lot.
