HDRI maps are wonderful lighting and environment tools since they give you both a scenery to play with, all the lighting already pre-made, plus, you save geometry memory and free up lots of rendering speed. However, all those benefits come with a cost: You can’t alter the lights/shadows without rotating the scenery, which often creates a mismatch: You’re either happy with the lights and shadows, or the background, and very seldom both. Plus, you can’t change the intensity of the lighting on your models without at the same time, altering the overall background brightness.

The best of both worlds!
