Does anyone ever think "what I need here is a Cm7b5" .... or do they noodle about and when they like the sound it eventually gets written down and someone reverse-engineers it into standard nomenclature ... I think that about some Beatles songs .

I would hope that anybody considering a m7b5 chord would use it where they wanted to emphasise the chord they are moving to, as this type of chord is most useful as a passing chord which adds a bit of interest. But I play in a skiffle band so would consider that all a bit highbrow!
