Is this because doing so 'reserves' the module for user space?
Hm, not sure what you mean by that.
It was a spontaneous guess, so there's not much meaning there, anyway ;-)
The "install" directive tells modprobe what to do when loading the module. If you don't have an "install", it will simply go ahead and load it. If you have one, it will run those commands *instead* of loading it.
*Now* I get it!
/bin/false would sound more logical to a human, but it returns "false" on exit, so modprobe thinks there was an error, and this would interrupt a boot, and/or give annoying error messages in the log
