Combining multiple decorators on a single function lets you layer several behaviors or transformations in a clear and reusable way. In real-world scenarios, you might want to log function calls, validate inputs, cache results, or modify outputs—all without changing the core logic of your function. By chaining decorators, you can build up complex behavior step by step. The order in which you apply decorators matters, as each one wraps the result of the previous, leading to different outcomes depending on how you arrange them.
