It's all to do with wanting faster speeds and some houses just don't have great coverage throughout the house -- walls or whatever objects can impede signal where they need to be repeated. I have personally just run wiring throughout the house to just add access points where needed, but I find that with my new house I just don't have time to do that and end up getting something like this to put something like openwrt on them to bridge together as a quick fix.
Other problems that happen too are that you get some new devices, like a tablet/phone/laptop - the newer devices might have chipsets in theme that just do not play nicely with your older set up.
You're right to point out though, what was once simple is not so simple anymore. I think a lot of people just want things to work faster while others might want things to work faster at other points in the house that have bad reception. The manufacturers of these things want you to buy THEIR devices and there's no real single nice way to get a "mesh" sort of network going -- it's always going to be hokey, which is why I try to do everything over CAT5e or better...

For the vast majority of households these mesh systems are being used to fix coverage issues. Maybe they want better coverage outside, or want to be able to hide the equipment better and dont want it smack dab in the middle of the home because its not practical. OR the install location is far from the office etc...
If your equipment still serves you well then you should have no worries - ALTHOUGH from a security standpoint, you might want to consider getting a new router if the manufacturer no longer is sending updates for security purposes. That is more a risk tolerance tho.
