Dealing with GnuPG complexity is a deal breaker for ordinary users,
preventing adoption. You need to look at it from product/business
development perspective and it makes perfect sense that they want to
ship their own UX.

Also, they mention that the key management workflow is something they
plan to address.

Cheers,
