So the default storage pool must exist?  Why?

So the default storage pool must exist?  Why?  I create all my storage pools, they are all on proper SAN, iSCSI, etc. on true storage frames.  So the need for a local (host) path for storage is, frankly useless, and well, confusing if it exists.  But apparently virt-deploy demands it exists?  I don't get it.  And virt-manager has the same issue?  You can remove it, but it 'magically' reappears?
