why are the watchdog drivers blacklisted?



/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf contains this comment, but why?

  # watchdog drivers should be loaded only if a watchdog daemon is installed

I maintain the package providing it, but I fear it is the result of
cargo cult sysadmining.
A driver will not engage the watchdog anyway until /dev/watchdog is
opened.
