It's not meaningless. QAUTOCFG controls auto-configuration of local 
controllers and devices i.e., twinax-displays and printers. Just 
because you may not have any of them doesn't remove the inherent 
meaning.

The other interfaces you mention are controlled by QAUTOVRT (as long as 
they create a virtual device).

QAUTORMT handles remote controller configuration.

This separation provides granularity of control--even if it is found 
confusing.
