I have NO Idea why SE is still using License Activation Systems from the early 00 years, but it's ridiculous.
I've heard that when you pre-ordered SHB through the PS4 it was added automatically. Those that pre-ordered through the PC had to activate their key through the steps you've stated above. I'm not 100% sure on this though, as I said, it's what I've heard.
