But those aren't actually copied by the pilots,
instead a light goes on in the cockpit when the plane passes over a
beacon, so the pilot knows he's on course.

The code is there so the pilot can verify, if necessary, that he is
tuned to the correct VOR. The Morse characters are printed on the
sectional chart next to the VOR symbol.
