There are various security-related jiggery-pokeries you can perform with access to some of those old protocols as they interact with browser security. It's safer just to disable them. And, well, let's be frank, the inconvenience of not being able to hit "echo" servers through your browser is pretty minimal.
I, uh, don't even know what you're trying to say there. Is that some form of agreement or a claim that it's nonsense? If it's the latter, well, it's not. Security attacks against some of these old protocols were demonstrated. The blacklist, as I understand it, may be a bit larger than it needs to be because conservatively a few more things were blocked than were demonstrated, but there were demonstrations.

Pure applesauce.
