It mostly comes from when the hidraw bus and linux event bus where separate drivers. Where there would be a real reason to want to be able to disable one or the other.
There could be future cases as well where multiple drivers are loaded in the base winebus.sys and a user would want to have granularity in their ability to turn individual ones on and off.
