what is the point of the inner piece shown in the pic above

If you are referring to the middle piece of the rocker panel sandwich. It's a reinforcement. Probably because that part of the rocker would bulge and shear without it. Always remember automotive manufacturers don't add pieces for no reason! They try to make everything as cheap as possible

they sell an " inner rocker" but its really a piece (not sure why) that is sandwiched between the outer and inner rocker.

THIS part is exactly the part that makes the jackpoints strong!   Also when you put the car on a 2 post lift!  Lots of people do this wrong because they don't trust that part you are refering to!  The middle part in this beam makes it very strong, so strong you can lift your car with a jack without a problem.

I have never looked inside the rockers.  Is there a reinforcement in the rear of the rocker too or just the fronts?

On both ends there is a mid-reinforcement, so there is the beam tripple sheet-steel!

A good habit would be that buyers always took a look in those beams!! I got a special camera of 4,5 mm  (about a 1/6th of an INCH! 😉 ) for this!
