Yes, it allows you to pay a lower fixed $79US price for an out of warranty replacement. It's similar to insurance.
Accidental damage is not a warranty repair.

In my experience, water left in the device will corrode it over time - wet phones are best immediately opened and cleaned, even if they're working, in order to ensure that they keep working.
The internals are confined enough that the water droplets will be unable to drain themselves out. They just sit there, slowly turning the circuits into mush.
