I think you overestimate the size of this project.
I agree it's not a big deal. It's just implementing a switch that
disables a list of features. The switch even already exists, though it
is incomplete.
The payoff is the embedded market is huge, and this can greatly expand
D's presence in the marketplace.
It's yet another opportunity to waste focus. (But then it goes to prove
that everybody does what they want...)

It's analogous to estimating the cost of any other new feature. It's
far more than the cost of just the implementation.
I don't disagree with doing it, not at all, but also have a concern with
under estimating the costs.
