Because this is the only antenna they sell now and is a huge jump from the previous. Buying a new zigbee antenna can be a bit hit or miss, so having an officially supported one, specially one where the profits also support the project long-term success, is important. So excuse me if I'm disappointed that the antenna stands more prominently than a dildo. If the antenna could tilt 90 degrees, it would at least fit on any shelf.

What does the look of the antenna matter in a closet?

What? It's not about the looks. It's about the size

You can't put it in the corner of the closet, on the ceiling?
