Does Chromium Edge Still Need To Be Manually Deployed To Windows 10 Teams 2020?

There is a page with instructions on how to deploy Edge Chromium with a provisioning package or Intune https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/surface-hub/surface-hub-install-chromium-edge

Since the old Edge version is out of support, why should we still need to do this extra step of manually deploying it as an app?  

Is Chromium Edge going to come through WUfB at some point in the future or is it already happening?
