Note that other schema objects can depend on the existence of
constraints.  For example, the validity of a view might depend on the
existence of a primary key constraint.  What would you do with the view
if the primary key constraint is temporarily disabled?

I don't see this in the SQL standard.  There is [NOT] ENFORCED, but
that's something different.  Implementing that instead might actually
address the above concern.
