You always could. Un-burrow doesn't NECESSARILY mean explode, you generally get a more cost efficient hit if you hit X yourself and time it right while they're still burrowed.

eCKo`Switch:

This - if it's just a few banelings, when set to autocast they unburrow miles away and die before they hit.

What if someone runs a Marauder or a Thor over your 10 Banelings? Not the best idea.

Also, the auto cast unburrows the banes at the first sign of enemies - rather than detonating it in the middle of the marine ball and getting maximum damage.

Not to mention you don't get to choose what you blow up on you could blow up on a bunch of tanks or thors. It's like lurkers compared with hold position lurkers, hold position lurkers could almost always be more effective in the hands of a pro even if not hold positioning them was easier.
