Because it's a kernel driver anyway?

Okay. So they can call it the “hardware and WireGuard” program for all I care. The reality is that MS requires this sort of approval / verification process for whatever WireGuard is doing. In true HN fashion everyone loves getting distracted by utter meaningless semantics.
It's a virtual network interface. So it's not really hardware, but the computer treats it like it is.
