It could be a typical design that the camera and LED always have power, and the LED is switchable.
Giving the camera plus LED a separate power supply means that the camera has to boot or come online, which maybe increases the dwell time. And the camera is not visible on the USB bus when powered off.
I think there's more engineering to Apple's design than it first seems.
