They're not writing it. It was there from day 1 via the ssh interface. All they're doing is writing a GUI for it, having closed off the ssh access. The facts that they seem surprised that customers want it, and that they left the ssh access open in the first place, shows a sad lack of knowledge about their customers.

Other reasons including: they've spent a lot of money on it to fit their particular network needs, and they think its far superior to the 'superhub's lowest-possible capabilities. Again, a sad lack of knowledge about their customers.
