Yes. There is a big difference between the single twitch when a servo is powered up and the continuous jittering/twitching when the servo is driven until something binds.

Think about it, not all devices connected to pwm outputs use 127 as a value for "off". So if disable mode sets values to 127 some devices, including drive motors, would still be operating. Not good.
