Because authenticated commands removes the liability issue. Hacking the device vs we knowingly let anything send g-code.
This is basically the equivalent to having passwords on a MySQL database or redis server.
Why on earth would they add a subscription? That makes absolutely no sense business wise. No one would buy their printers, and they don't have a captured market to strong arm anyone.

Why would they add a subscription? Uhm print farms already have subscription based software. Bambu would just be an easier entry. They already have screenshots of it on their wiki.
