i presume that the motivation is that:

werner's ttfautohint, which uses the same code as freetype, is the
only floss option to add automated instructions to a sfnt.

hiring someone to do manual instructing is expensive(!) and modern
monitors tend to have enough pixel density that unhinted or autohinted
grayscale looks fine.
