"What's a situation where you feel a ';' definitely works better than a '.' ?"
Generally, I don't use semi-colons.
Or full colons, for that matter.
If I need to get fancy with punctuation to make the meaning clear, I need to rethink the writing.

@nlowell@indieauthors.social I use semi-colons fairly often, mostly to indicate two sentences are tightly connected to each other, or for a kind of hierarchical comma.
