GPIO Pins of ADAU1701 - Pullup resistor needed?

Page 45 of the ADAU1701 datasheet states that "Every MP pin has an internal 15 kΩ pull-up resistor." In that case why do we need 10k resistors for these pins when used as input pins, as shown in AN-951 such as Figure 1? Can I eliminate them in my design when I know for sure they will be used only as inputs? (I have tried using them as inputs without pullups with no issues so far.)

Thanks - Ram

Hi Ram,

Since there is an internal pull-up, the external pull-up is redundant and therefore optional.
