How would you have "received" it if you didn't manually claim it? There are currently 1000s of free NFTs (almost all completely valueless) I could claim on random projects, if I don't manually claim them they are not a digital asset I have received. GP had to claim their reddit NFT to receive and then "own" it in their reddit vault (which is a non-custodial wallet too actually, stored on Arbitrum's blockchain).
