It was to eliminate a possible vibration with the air conditioning on. Lots of people have removed it and it works fine. (Earlier cars did not have the frisbee) Pull it off and see what you think.

belt chirp
Did more research and found that the frisbee can also make the belt chirp, which mine does. Didn't always do it, not sure when it started since I don't drive the car that much any more. The car chirps when it shifts at anything above 1/2 throttle. I thought it was the trans. I'll remove the frisbee after the snow and salt are gone and see if that fixes it.

As stated, when they changed to the NipponDenso AC Compressor in 88, they added this piece to calm a vibration.
Nearly everyone who knows its there ends up removing it.
