In the best of all possible worlds you would be correct. In the real
world which most of us inhabit, we have tools and/or devices which do
not support SNMPv2 for one or more of traps and get/set. (e.g. device
does, management agent does not.)

I have to convert SNMPv2 MIBs into SNMPv1 to keep those dinosaurs happy.
Fortunately libsmi makes this easy.
