The difference is if you turn it off when you slow down interlaced footage and then try to output it to a video monitor - it skips around because it repeats interlaced frames. There a reason Premiere enables that option by default - people who target NTSC or any other interlaced medium need to slow down a progressive source or else you get skipping.

Because Bob sucks. First off Bob in an AVIsynth script will turn it into a 59.94fps video stream, and that would be dumb to edit with.
And FYI DVD apps that use Bob to deinterlace generally look like crap. My little laptop here bobs on interlaced DVDs and I find it almost unwatchable. Interpolation algorithms are far better.

Simple - when you're IVTC'ing a stream which hasn't been edited or messed with then you have a much better chance of doing it correctly. A very evenly-telecined piece of footage will wind up almost flawless using DeComb. However, once you start editing with your footage in 29.97, inserting cuts on that timebase, and generally doing what an AMV editor does, then DeComb's job becomes much harder. DeComb's meant to reconstruct a 24fps stream from what was originally a 24fps stream. After editing in Premiere it is no longer a 24fps stream because all the cuts and fades and whatnot have been made on a 30fps time axis.
