Haha, I actually remembered why I wrote it that way.  I was planning
at some point in time to enable LACP by default in passive mode.  If
we did this, we would make balance-tcp the default bonding mode which
would fall back to balance-slb if the partner switch didn't speak
LACP.  Seems like this is unlikely to happen in the near term though,
and if it does we can always change the docs.
