Because of ... things I'd really rather not even think about, let alone consider discussing ... there are ceratin machines at $work that are thus configured. (Yes, I'm working on repairing this self-inflicted wound.) The only issue of which I'm aware is that if one wishes to use mfiutil(8), it better be one that was built from 8.3 source; an 8.2 mfiutil run on an 8.3 kernel will panic the box consistently.
