Uses of CIMS and associated reductions

I've recently started doing some independent study work at college and managed to make it somewhat FRC related, and hence have a few general questions for the FRC community.

What occasions have you used a CIM motor outside of a drivetrain?

What were those occasions?

What gear reduction did you apply to said CIM?

What method/gearbox did you use? custom spur? planetary? number of stages?

What were the leading issues you faced when designing said reduction?

If you could respond with answers to these questions that'd be great
