This might be for connecting to a keyboard or input peripheral, many users, especially Mac ones don't use wired keyboard or mice.
Security and user hostility aside, I can see this being one of the main reasons to re-enable it during "important" OS updates.

Also, the same thing happens on Mac laptops with built-in keyboard and trackpad. Moreover, it happens on iPhone too, which has no peripherals. Not sure why you changed "every" OS update to "important" OS updates.
