Because it’s pay for play. We have no idea what it means to be Matter compliant by being outside the association. We had to pay and be part of the CSA to be able to understand what it will take to create a device and what are the impact on the overall business.
We were starting to have also some pushes from our partners to join the Matter initiative to continue working on some initiatives.
The reality of Matter is that it is still a moving target and we are not ready to talk about our plans with Matter. We are definitely interested and are looking at the impact on the current products, futures products and more importantly the current ecosystem that we have.
Also be sure that despite having 200 companies in Matter, you can be sure that not all of them will adopt Matter. I think all the traditional players will and we want to be one of them but timing is also going to be important.
