The thing is... Apple doesn't make this feature prominent. The only real consumer-friendly way to access Screen Sharing was through iChat back in the day. The Application is buried within the System folder and most people think you have to pay $50 USD for Apple's commercial Remote Desktop solution.
Most people don't need all of the features of the full client, such as remotely installing packages or managing machines. They just want to access their machines through the LAN or through Back to My Mac. https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/ https://www.apple.com/support/icloud/back-to-my-mac/
It's not the same software, but it's basically a scaled down version to get the job done.
