On a Marlin 336 what is the purpose of the rear sight folding down?

As a "saddle gun" it will slip into and out of the scabbard without snagging if the rear sight is folded flat. Often found in association with a hooded front sight for the same reason. Doesn't look as "westernish" as a buckhorn model with adjusting ramp, but the folding leaf works just fine.
