Access Control Security Issue

I often wonder "why?" about Netgear decisions.  Unless something is part of a marketing campaign, most companies provide no explanations and customers are left to speculate.

Why do security cameras and televisions often come with 100Mbps Ethernet adapters rather than gigabit adapters? hmmm...

• These devices require less than 100Mbps data rate, and
• 100Mbps adapters probably cost less than gigabit adapters, so.....
• But does the manufacturer print anything explaining why they made this decision.  Nope.

My take is

• There is a clear trend toward smartphone apps to manage everything.  Some companies do not include web interface in their WiFi routers at all.  Why spend money to modify/maintain the web interface when so many customers would prefer to use the app?
• Netgear clearly wants customers to subscribe (i.e. pay every year) to Armor and Smart Parental Controls (SPC), so making those apps available only through the smartphone app is a way to push customers toward the app.

But, Why?  No one outside Netgear knows.

p.s. Checked an RBR750 (WiFi6)  Still present in the web interface.
