Consideration of the primitive homomorphic images of semigroups arises naturally from their matrix representation theory. (See, for example, papers [1] and [2].) This is basically because a semigroup of matrices, in which all the matrices have the same rank, is necessarily primitive. (The set of idempotents in the semigroup may be empty, however).
