It is for creating a new table.

TREATAS function - DAX | Microsoft Learn
expected result table =

GROUPBY (
data,
data[location],

"@maxdate", MAXX ( CURRENTGROUP (), data[date] )
)
VAR _t =
CALCULATETABLE (
data,
TREATAS ( _condition, data[location], data[question category], data[date] )
)
RETURN
ADDCOLUMNS (
SUMMARIZE ( _t, data[location], data[question category], data[date] ),
"@ScoreSum", CALCULATE ( SUM ( data[score] ) )
)
