For example, the preset called Faerie Shimmer.

I am wondering what the purpose is of having a cable going from Env1 to the amp. Removing that cable, it seems like I can still get the exact same sound by adjusting the ENV2 release and decay. Is there a subtle difference in sound I'm not noticing, or some other reason for the patch cable?

Oh gosh, is it as simple as, "to free up Env2 for something other than the amp"?

That would be my first thought.

However, I can't see Env2 being used for any purpose in the Fairy Shimmer patch - even the normalled filter cutoff EG2 amounts are set to zero. Perhaps the programmer just prefers to use an AR-type envelope when creating percussive patches. As you stated in your OP, you have to set decay and release to be the same amount when using Env1.
