To keep alive the community that maintains the packages that businesses use? /s
There are a few things you won't forget and the last years were one of those events. Thankfully the competition made leaps forward regarding software support.
Do you remember FTDI-gate 1 & 2 (approx. 1 decade ago)? I do and FTDI never made it back onto my BOM and probably never will again, at least until SiliconLabs, WCH, and Holtek screw it up.
They’re probably doing that for first batch bug fixes.
