#2 The takfir fatwa is one of the pillars of some of the modern salafi schools of Islamic law (requiring extra stringency in observance e.g., waking up at 3 am for mandatory prayer).

Without the threat of takfir, the Salafists would have to persuade other moslems to adopt their Safiri ways by either logic or their example. Those won't work.
