What type of lifting routine is this?
When you do three sets of 10 reps, then drop the weight by 30% and do a final set for as many reps as possible.
What merit does this have on a routine?

There called drop sets. Usually do a set with your usual weight and do as many possible. Then you take of 5 or 10lbs and do as many as you can. Then continue the process. Drop sets are killer, seriously. Makes your muscles grow.

That is called a drop set and will help to build muscle endurance. It will also be moderately beneficial for muscle size.
It has merit if your main goal is increased muscular endurance.
