It's an emissions / fuel economy thing. Most ECU's will stop injecting fuel when you're slowing down on closed throttle - but will start injecting again if it's put in neutral or the clutch is depressed (to stop the engine stalling).
If you just leave the switch out the revs will dip, and possibly stall when you stop.
If you bypass it it'll probably be fine, but use more fuel.
