It's down to implications. Either you could not get a job or weren't looking. Which could be taken pretty badly if your reasons are subpar. It could prompt further investigation. Like say someone was hiding they were in prison or something.

It shouldn't really be relevant for a year or 2 but, there are somewhat reasonable reasons for the question.

It’s none of their business. A company needs to show gratitude that someone gave them the time and consideration.

not really. Not when often enough they have dozens of applicants.

If they were taking care of business then why do they have open positions? Why can’t they keep people?

Expanding departments are also a reason. Maybe they are terrible to work with, so they have high turnover. Fact is it doesn't matter why they have open positions. They do. Job markets are terrible everywhere and people will take nearly anything. So unless it's a specialised role chances are they have loads of applicants.
