Honestly also curious why this is necessary.

Ah, it's in the article.

To top it all off, Shadows' EULA also includes a provision that allows the game to monitor your PC's RAM to ensure you're not running any unauthorized programs like macros, cheats, or hacks, a well-intentioned clause that nonetheless feels a touch out of place in a single-player game and could potentially scare off some of the more suspicious players who aren't comfortable with their hardware being monitored.

unauthorized programs

No one gets to authorize programs to run on my PC but me.

It's honestly very odd that it needs to do this for a single-player game.
