I’m pretty ignorant about British foods. I suspect that’s pretty normal.

I always thought of oyster crackers as a special and prettier alternative to crushed saltines for topping soups. Also kinda functional: airier and doesn’t get soggy as fast as saltines tend to.

I’ve pressed them into service as quasi-croutons on salad once or twice when I didn’t have the latter, as well.
