Why do we learn about the present perfect?

The present perfect is useful to describe:

-iets zeggen over een actie of gebeurtenis die permanent of van lange duur is;

Example:  He has lived in Rotterdam since 2020.


- iets zeggen over het verleden wat nu nog van belang is.

Example: He has never been to that restaurant.
