What's the deal with disabling the EGR?

I've heard countless times about sticking a BB in the rubber coupling to the EGR, and how this I would get a slight performance increase. Why is this?

And besides legal reasons, why would you advise against doing this? I've heard countless times "Don't do it" but only for emissions, etc. Can disabling this actually cause harm?

I don't think it will do much harm, but engine will runs a little hotter.
