Last thing you want is to facilitate a boomerang scam or give an abusive partner control over someone’s device.
As far as I know Find My is opt-out nowadays and while Apple could see if they could tweak the onboarding language a bit to warn people of potential bad outcomes, you want to keep onboarding clean in general and including all ifs and buts for every feature would make that impossible.
I think there’s also something to be said for the lack of curiosity amongst users these days.
Apple publishes manuals for all their devices which go into great detail and get updated with every major OS update.
Devices also offer up a tour (macOS) and tips (iOS) that go over useful features. And there’s of course the option to look into features yourself.
