Switching ground?

In many automotive schematics that I have seen the ground is switched more often than the power supply. Is this the preferred method with DC power? And does it matter if switching a solenoid?
I am not a stranger to electrical circuits and wiring strategies, just not involved in DC that often. In my world low voltage control circuits often switch a “common” wire to minimize arching and mitigate inrush currents.
Thanks for any input!
