With a package, having automatic imports forces those submodules to be loaded eagerly (as soon as you import the package, you load up those modules). Lazily-loaded submodules can improve performance if you don't always need them. +0 for an easier way to import multiple submodules at once. It's not something I've personally had a need for, but it's a sane and logical thing to do.
