As Gunner says, the hi/lo stop end screws stop you losing your chain off either back or front. It's only likely to jump into the gap when you're riding particularly quick, rough sections of trail, but you wouldn't have it in granny ring then anyway, so I can't see the point (unless you're running 9-speed). My chain slipped off and jamed between the back hub and the cassette The crappy bit of plastic sometimes fitted behind the cassette is meant to stop this but looks garbage - it's better to get the mech set up correctly and bin the plastic disc, imo.

Mild violence and wiggling normally gets the chain out.
