Probably because this came out 16 years ago, before HomeAssistant even existed, it will still maintain wifi support for checking and controlling with your phone even after they cut off the cloud connection, and all their new products do have a local API and can still be used with HomeAssistant or whatever other local home automation server you have.
Furnaces last 20-30 years....

It's a switch, on/off on temp. Everything else is fancy crap that they can shut off forcing you to buy again.
The switch part will still work. How are you not getting this?
