Anyone have any idea why they chose to require 'configuration profiles' here?

Also, don't 'configuration profiles' require that your Mac have an associated AppleID?

There are several tools that can push configuration profiles to many macOS or iOS devices in one go [1]. It's also the kind of thing you don't want users in managed environments messing with if they don't know what they're doing.

I can't see why they'd be connected; being able to configure network settings isn't a "feature" related to having an Apple ID.
