The localiser (and glide path) critical area must be protected in all weather conditions. It's the associated sensitive areas that are protected only in LVP.

The localiser critical area for the A380 is significantly larger than that for other other aircraft.

It appears that this may be proactive mitigation in the event that an A380 rolls long into the localiser critical area.
