Yes there is.
Heartbeat resource agents don't support monitor ;-).
However, we use this odd and different behavior to good effect in the
CTS tests, and it's actually caught a kernel bug with respect to the
caching of MAC addresses by some version of Linux or another.
Since it's been useful, we kept it.
IIRC, if you remove this behavior, everything will work fine except CTS,
which relies on this behavior to do a little bit deeper testing. [Or at
least it used to, or maybe only in R1 configurations. The details
escape me].
