      In some cases (and they aren't vehicle specific) it's to get to the wiring harness under the dash to disconnect the turn signal switch wiring. Some vehicles don't have enough slack in the wiring to get the turn signal switch (the largest plastic piece he removes before getting to the lock cylinder) out of the way to get to the lock cylinder. Wiring is attached to the back side of the turn signal switch. Some may pull the wiring off of the turn signal switch if they pull too hard. Dropping the column makes it easy to get to the wiring harness to disconnect and reconnect the wiring harness.
