There's typically also soldered down analogue components that are selected based on the bias voltage so a specific system likely won't have the full flexibility. > The enable/disable is controlled by a DAPM and should be wired to enable > whenever we are recording from the related microphone pin.

That'd depend on someone having a board that was able to detect that a line input was plugged in or a user control for this. If the board was permenantly set up for line input presumably the bias wouldn't even be wired up.
