If that were so, why did the manufacturer put them on in the first

1. Over time they have the tendency to stick, which can be a problem
when taking off from a short runway.

2. At big airports, tug drivers sometimes think they can just move any
plane they want if it's in their way. If your parking brake is set,
it'll get ruined this way.
