    It also makes giving or getting any kind of support a hellish time sink, but that’s almost besides the point…

    You know, this comment just made me realize this might actually be the point for some companies.

    Its a cheap way to pretend that you care about customer service, while actually dissuading customers strongly from actually trying. Its also completely easy to bot vs having a human on a phone line.
