Because that was the customer expectation, and our competitors did it too. (Including Dropbox, Box, and Google Drive.)
What we did was work a backdoor channel into Apple to "encourage" them to add an API. I don't know if it was our influence that did it, or the fact that they realized that blocking 3rd party integrations into Finder would be a considered a regression from the general public's POV, but they made their API and we adopted it.
