Comment (by DD32):

 The idea was to allow for fatal errors within the activation hook to be
 displayed, Any fatal error which occurs during the activation hook on
 activation will cause the plugin not to be activated, and then display an
 empty scrape page (Since the fatal error inside the activation hook is
 never hit)

 It also allows for plugins to test conditions (such as wordpress version)
 on their activation hooks, and to prevent the activation if a bad-
 condition is met.
