I don't know the OS the way you all do but that seems to make good sense.

Enabling PC disables the export of the USB file system.
With systems that do not fully boot properly, the short time the USB file system is accessible (a second or two) during the boot sequence is your only chance of escaping from the 'bad boot'.
So - if you have any of the special controls set, not only can you not 'reset' the device, you can't rescue it over the USB port.
Your only recourse in that situation is to do the recovery over the serial port.
