Because some people that can actually use it (i.e I never accidentally
click when trying to move the mouse; maybe you just have a crappy
touchpad?).
The advantage is that you can click without moving your finger away
from the touchpad it is way faster.

I don't care about the default setting but for me it is annoying
(trying to click on livecd which has the default settings feels broken
as nothing happens).
