They do it to get around very anti competitive behaviour. WeChat pretty much have monopoly on chat in China so if you want to get into that market I guess you have to come up with some way around it. Though I agree that a button that would activate it would likely have been a better way to do it. Even if they did not do anything nefarious this really makes it look like it was.
