The "intrinsic" part comes from the heritage of routing daemons and
what they expect from flush operations, these assumption live in the
ipsec daemons as well.

A daemon, routing or ipsec, is flushing the tables in order to create
an entirely "clean slate", and they very much expect the policy and
state tables to be %100 empty after the operation.
