If it is required by law, blame the lawmaker not the wallet company.

I know Ledger will do something that will not disappointed about them again and this is another one. Maybe in the next 1 or two years, they will come up with another thing again. Or maybe they will come up with it within months.
While you should avoid using Ledger anyway, the blame is misdirected. I doubt anyone would spend money implementing these things unless they were required to do so.
It  would have been stated if they want to follow regulations.

Wallets are created in a way they can avoid regulations but Ledger is trying to be of the the ways they can start government having control over noncustodial wallet.

If hardware wallets are like this, I will prefer wallets on airgapped devices.

Exactly and if I were to guess, I'd say they might impose various transaction limits [e.g., daily, weekly and monthly] based on users' verification levels on Ledger Live.
As long as you can use it with other software, such limits would not do anything. Why would you even use Ledger Live at all except for app updates?

Some people like to use it because it supports many coins. Some people just like what comes directly from the company. From some questions some people are asking in this forum, it is evident that many people are using it.
