It doesn't bother me personally, I should add - but it certainly bothers people, and in the early days of streaming platforms in the UK was oft quoted as a quality of life enhancement people enjoyed over watching linear TV.
Pick and Challenge (and Real Lives when that was still about) were not part of Sky's core proposition - which is/was content primarily to push their platform and convert people in to customers. Granted they still do push their own content/platform heavily on Challenge but that's more a synergy than anything - its main purpose is to deliver a large, FTA, audience to advertisers.
