Why scan apache multi indexes?

The apache manuals show that you can specify sort orders for automatic directory listing e.g.

http://myserver/mydir/?C=N;O=D

The config.php has options for 16 variations for apache multi indexes. The default is all enabled. I see four of them in use when spidering my site.

1. Why do we need to rescan a directory with different sort orders at all? My server always responds with "Duplicate of an existing document".

2. Why does my spidering only use four of them?

3. Can I safely turn it off?

Thanks
Rob
