It's just a switch, actually 'disabled' is not needed.
For the enabled case, mostly used in below scenarios
1. Online testing, USB IN -> Factory testing -> write 1 to enable ->
USB out -> immediately VSYS off -> pack
2. Offline testing no vbus -> Factory testing -> write 1 to enable ->
immediately VSYS off -> pack

The 'disable" can use to cancel the shipping mode in case 1 before USB out.
It's more like the testing.

Like as you said, shipping BATFET_OFF is all the hardware behavior.
To leave this mode after VSYS off, there're three ways
1. power key pressed
2. VBUS IN
3. control BATFET_OFF to 0 (But it need SOC to be alive, at the time,
VSYS off, no one can execute this I2C command)

If what you care is no need to mention 'disable', then just remove it.
It's fine.

It's a switching charger integrates OTG boost.
For the case 'DC Jack', there's no need to use this kind of product.

With typec integration, at most time, it still need bc12 to be enabled
by default.
Just in some case, like as power role swap (SNK -> SRC -> SNK), to
automatically identify the USB port,
this may interrupt USB communication.

So as my understanding, keep it enabled by default, just in some case,
it my need to control at runtime.
