Just one of those things that GM did to improve on the overall mileage of the car as all OEM's have to maintain a minimum CAFE (Corp Avg Fuel Economy) rating over the entire line and every little bit helps in that regard.

To answer another question you had in your first post. I find the AFM very rarely engages when in M mode. And always engages in D or S.
