Results in the used market become blurry as to whether a 3DS will be hackable or not, which is probably enough of a barrier to block off anyone who'd consider getting one for homebrew that doesn't 100% know what they're at. Basically an effort to lock 3DS games into a vault until they can find a use for them. It happening so late into the 3DS life with basically anyone who wanted a hacked 3DS already having one it potentially reduces the amount of manpower that will go into finding an exploit too. I'd say they intentionally waited until after the eshop was closed to release this.
