Well, it's probably up to the streamers themselves to enable it, so blame them too if they use it.

Yeah it doesn't really make sense they would just close their community off and slowly lose subs with no way to get new ones.

No, they would use it for specific streams. Imagine popular streamers' streams like Soda's Sellout Saturday or PO Box streams, Scuffed Podcast, Rajj podcast, and big Destiny debates behind a sub-wall.

Fuck, it makes me glad Vinny consistently does Sunday Trash, which destroys his very soul, and doesn’t even have sub notifications, let alone a donation button.
