Yup, but it's easier to lock down an EV because they don't need to include an OBDII port (no emissions), so there's really no standards they need to adhere to. So they just remove pretty much all choice at the start so people don't get mad later when they remove features in future models.

ICE cars need to do it more slowly to properly boil the frog.
