Probably not just that. 3DES is the last cipher supported by "old" clients (I'm talking Windows XP). If you remove 3DES, the TLS connection will simply fail.

You can never imagine how many people are still using WinXP, or other forgotten legacy clients/servers that only support up to TLS 1.0 and RC4/DES/3DES without realizing it.
