To improve taste and balance pH, an alkaline filter is added as a final stage in some RO systems. This filter reintroduces essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium into the water. Doing so raises the pH to a more neutral or slightly alkaline level (typically 7.0–8.5), enhances flavor, and gives the water a smoother mouthfeel.
In short, the alkaline filter prevents flat water by restoring minerals removed during RO filtration, making the water more pleasant to drink and less acidic.

But you can't look at instances of erroneous claims as evidence that the underlying product itself has no application. Not everybody who is utilizing alkaline water is doing so because they believe it can "alkalize the entire body". It is a very effective as a targeted tool to treat conditions like LPR that results in a build up of pepsin in the upper esophageal tract, serving to neutralize the acids that should not be there, but are, and are causing damage to tissue in the region - with the implication that you are also taking concrete steps to address the underlying dysfunction itself.
The cool thing about Alkaline water is it's strictly speaking a generic term that refers to a water with alkaline properties, which no company (and their erroneous marketing campaigns) has a monopoly on. I produce my own Alkaline water in house at a fraction of the cost of any marketable product, and my utilization of the product is based on my understanding of the underlying chemical science, not any marketing team trying to convince me nonsense about the health benefits they claim their product can offer.

Filter life has been excellent, likely helped by my whole-house carbon filter that reduces chlorine before the RO system. Overall, I'd recommend it. The only downside is the proprietary filters, but replacements are simple, quick, and the system takes up very little space under the sink. Note that this model works much better with a pressure tank, which I had to purchase separately.
