BQ25890H: D+ D- switch

Part Number: BQ25890H

Tool/software:

Hi team,

In BQ25890H datasheet, I noticed there is a optional function D+ D- switch between charge and Host, I want to know is this necessary for tablet application? and which application is it necessary for? and what function is it? could you help to explain it as detail as possible?

the background is that my customer want to use this device in a tablet project as the second source,  but the first source don't need the switch, they want to know can we be compatible with this application? the SCH is as the attachment.
