Why would one select this as an option either permanently under Board Preferences in User Control Panel or during log-in?

Just idle curiosity really.

Probably only to prevent Dear Heart from calculating my time online when she is doing one of her interminable time and motion studies of my good self

'Cos you're pretending to be uncontactable (Offshore cruising?) as the bailiffs are in the vicinity, but can't resist the lure of a dabble just to see how the claymore legacy is progressing..and don't trust the server prefects not to give your hom.ead.dre.ss away?
Otherwise, I don't see the value of the option either.
