What does Ethereal Sight actually do?

Outside of letting you spot the rare creature on the ethereal plane, that is. Information on the Ethereal plane is actually rather sparse, especially limiting ourselves to only PF2 materials. Having a class feat that mostly just lets you fight Ether Spiders better feels awfully limited.

The other perspective is that it lets you see as though you were on the ethereal plane, and one could interpret the material plane appearing insubstantial as "translucent." If this jawn lets you see through walls, a la the crystal sight of the PF1 Stone Mystery, it suddenly becomes AMAZING, but that seems like it is too good to be true. It would become a class defining ability that would certainly justify how rough the curses can be.
