I’ll understand this one day
The Schrödinger equation is explicitly not Lorentz invariant, whereas the Dirac equation was the first equation that described the quantum nature of electrons and was Lorentz invariant. So it joined SR and QM very nicely.

From what you said, I’m guessing it has utility in quantum field theory ? The Dirac equation I mean

Indeed. It's the basis for Quantum Electrodynamics. QED comes from quantizing the Dirac field and then gauging the global U(1) symmetry
