Agreed. Facebook has a ton of engineers sitting around (not designers, engineers). Only so many can data mine and work on advertising, so some portion of them will look around and decide "what if we just add in random feature x from other thing y!" and eventually some get approval. It's really nonsensical from a user perspective. I can't imagine what user would ask for this. And because of the scale of Facebook, there's no penalty for this not working out. So they will just keep pushing random features and will see what sticks. See stories, their AI chatbot assistant in messenger, and I suspect this will suffer the same fate.
