Still though, surely all of this could be done over DMs?

yes but i wanted to keep the language natural. and if you naturally want to address dropbox on twitter, then you "@dropbox" them, and not "DM @ctrltwit do something with dropbox".
moreover i realized best usecases are replies to tweets (like liking an instagram photo, subscribing to a youtube channel, saving to pocket), and those wouldn't have been possible with DMs
