And, when discussing stuff like this, it is important to understand that “all VPNs” actually means corporate and public VPNs.
If you want to have an actual conversation then context matters. Rather than just fixating on nonsensical overly literal interpretations because you only want to be “technically correct” by attacking a strawman.

Depends.
I am in uni, so a bit different, but there’s many sites that allow access to articles, studies, books, etc. to us based on source IP. And I guess it could be hard to route only those, especially if some of them decide to use Cloudflare or similar.
Another option is doing so for easier monitoring of work devices that people will always try to use for things they’re not supposed to.
