Why would one use this rather tan Let's Encrypt?

If you are asking about why SSL For free went to this instead of Let's encrypt, it's pretty obvious money

If you are asking about why someone would use this instead of just using acme.sh or certbot, it's because some people doesn't even know how to show their current working directory (or even what a working directory is), so it's not that easy for them to understand more advanced topics like TCP ports, DNS records, they just want to optimize their SEO
