so what is telekenises good for ?

you cant pick pocket from a distance

you cant activte anything from a distance

sure you can bring stuff that was far away closer to you or things that were close farther away but thats about it and in shops people always see you (I have 100 sneak and security and 100 agility and speed)

found out you can throw objects by pushing and then blocking but this has no point because the thrown objects does no damadge to the targetted people dont even walk over to you in annoyance

(would of been more fun if you could pick up the alembic on teh table throw it at a fellow mage and them get all like "oww whyd you do that" or go to the SI and throw something at runs-in-circles and activate her "Ni" attack

There's lots of places where there's loot that is out of reach if you don't have extreme Agility or Telekinesis. About a third of the Welkynd Stones are up on tall pedestals, where you either have to shoot an arrow at them, or use the TK spell. The arrow method often knocks the stone out of reach and you end up having to TK it anyway.

It's also a good recharge spell for Atronachs once your skill level is high enough to profit.
