Almost every situation of someone running indirect GLX is a mistake that results in X Server crashes. Indirect GLX is the cause of regular security vulnerabilities, and rarely provides any capability to the user. Just disable it unless someone wants to enable it for their special use case (using +iglx on the command line).
