I'd like to know why the tor daemon autostarts and whether it's safe to disable it from starting automatically.

Here users asked how to disable it for Ubuntu and Debian.

Normally users would expect network services that are installed to start automatically, this is true for other network services under debian or ubuntu like httpd or sshd.

If you're running a relay or an onion service or another service that depending on using tor as a client then you'd definitely want the tor system service to start automatically.
