In the use case I started this message with, the user has enabled
Flymake.  Instead of seeing only the function signature in the echo area
-- and being denied the presumed Flymake diagnostic "beneath it" -- this
user would now see both items of information in two lines of said echo
area.

A similar reasoning applies to other situations with two competing
different sources of context or "at point" documentation.  Currently,
even without Flymake there are function signatures and variable
docstrings, for example.
