Ditto--same here in my book.

I took it to mean that you won't shift the shutterspeed dial to 1/125 by
accident. If you have it at 1/30, and you clikstop, you either end up at
60 (good enough) or 15 (there goes your shot unless tripod mounted). Or
that's what my mind came up with. YMMV (your mind may vary) ;-)
