Open Racket Face

Why is there so much emphasis on having an open racket face?

To be able to get the racket face under the ball to lift it up above the tin.
To prevent so many unforced errors.
To get the power in the drive by pronation/supination of the forearm.
To backspin the ball to make it sit down and control the speed.
