If your still not understanding this remember that the "wire" needs to
be protected and even a non fused switch or non breakered switch is
some protection for that 10 foot section before your panel.


Uh, how is a switch going to provide circuit overcurrent protection?

Not necessarily. The switch may have a higher current capacity than the
10' of wire! :-)
