Practice
This room is ideal to practice the Mockball, since unlike the first mockball that runners usually learn in Early Supers Room it has a flat floor, a high ceiling, and doesn't have a door transition in the middle of the jump.
Late Game
On the way to Statues Room at the end of the game, if you have Speed Booster you can fire a shot to open the door as you pass the third light on the ground, and then you can either do a full jump midway between the third and fourth lights, or a small jump at the fifth light. For Any% KPDR you want to avoid doorchecking, because it will add processing time to the door transition if you do so with Space Jump.
