I get your point. I assume the intent is to call out companies on marketing good things and trying to bury customer unfriendly things. As a customer you can assume that if a company is not drawing attention to something, it's not good or at least the feature is not there.

I don't think you got it... it's a lazy way of writing headlines, and as someone else pointed out, it's an AI thing. Search news.google.com for silently or quietly and be amazed how many hits there are.
