Indeed. I get these security "wall of questions" for my $10/lifetime SaaS product (it's a dumb little puzzle maker). I can't fathom why anyone thinks a vendor would spend the time answering their questions for that kind of money.
In their defense, it's probably a standard part of the procurement process and they don't even look at the app before sending the questionnaire.
