Not shocking - between the "use icloud" nag screen when attaching photos in Messages and basic stuff not porting over with local backups instead of icloud (weather, health, stocks etc), this is another yet another customer-adverse step that substitutes montly sub for "just works". This past month I migrated from iphone 12 to 13 and it involved manually reloading/resetting virtually everything, despite making a local backup of the old phone. It would seem that the apple builtin apps specifically just don't restore without icloud - it's almost as if there's a product manager somewhere that's using icloud utilization in GB as their OKR benchmark, and that's one way to hit it. Apple discontinuing TimeCapsule and disbanding the team couple years back isn't lost on me either.
