Could it keep the plants from taking root between the paving "stones"?

Guy laying concrete 
block units ("Z" shaped, if you know what I mean) on flat sand ground for 
driveway.  But between sand and blocks guy is putting big sheets of 10? mil 
plastic sheeting. Cannot explain why, just says it is good. 
 
in this area it is common practice to put down heavy black 
plastic mesh before putting down a new gravel drive - keeps the gravel from 
sinking in the clay
 
mebbe this be a cheap version of applying the same 
principle?  mebbe no plastic mesh to be had ?
