By allowing Kodi to have access to something like Netflix it takes Netflix's user interface out of the equation. Their GUI is on browsers and apps, which allows them to control what content you get, like advertisements for other programs on Netflix, support pages, user selection, etc. Each service is different, and each would need to develop their own add-on for software that costs $0. It does not matter if the add-on only works for paid subscribers, by putting it in Kodi it takes control of Netflix content away from Netflix. That is something they can not allow. And this applies to any premium content provider.
Yep, they want full control of your brain.
It's to notice that Netflix has exactly the same UI whatever the platform, and that it generally ignores the platform as a whole (very much noticeable on AndroidTV).

No Netflix on the FireTV? Whaaa?

Which has now been removed as it is against the forum rules and has been noted.
Thanks @FXB78 for pointing that out.
