Sorry, Apple is not here to provide Support for a why question. This is a Community site of other Apple users where the only thing that would be possible is to speculate on the reasons, and typically speculation is not allowed on this site for violating its Terms of Use.

Nope, I am not a bot and yes I am a real person. You will find some real people who will post a response that is clearly one where they simply copy/pasted the question into a Chatbot and post that answer, but I did not. According to the Terms of Use for this website, moderators have the right, but not obligated to remove posts wholly generated from an AI tool:
