Really the chapter that gets to me is why they had a chapter from Aerys Oakheart's point of view when they kill him off in the next chapter he appears in. Arranne was present throughout, and it just seemed like a dumb decision for it not to be her POV, as well as in ADWD when she's also present the entire chapter, but we don't get her POV.
GRRM thrives on showing every character through a different characters eyes. The reason they weren't all through Ariannes pov is because that would only be one side of the story. GRRM wants to tell the story through every set of eyes he can. That's why you have characters like Jaime who are pieces of shite in the worlds eye but we know better.

I don't see what it added though. Until ADWD, we didn't have any other character's POV that intersected with Dany's story. Jaime, yeah, it adds alot to get an outside view of him first and then an inside one, but from Aerys Oakheart, not at all.
