My opinion is that someone who is making the deciscion to reduce the features of the next firmware update of things, is putting security as their top priority as ordered, but have no good idea on how to actually secure some features. So they decide to remove the feature altogether. Axes are cheaper than high fine grade operational instruments. But since the programmers are using resources anyway, why not visit all other departments of the company if they want features modified. Maybe some ideas can generate more money for the company eh?
