Just required by common sense/logic, really. 5k is the gold standard no matter if you drive a kia, ford, bmw, lexus, honda, daihatsu. rotating the tires every 5k helps distribute the wear. you don't need to do it, just like you don't need to brush your teeth. but you also "need" to brush your teeth.

The language in those shop sheets are pretty loose and not to be taken too literally. One can do what they want with their car and one should. You are just another number to the "dealer."
It's best to not overthink this. Not rotating the tires on your car isn't the end of the world either on a FWD grocery getter. You'd likely be fine if you don't. It's just optimal if you want the longest life possible from your tires.

There's quite a few topics which need no discussion, no thinking. no threads. this is one of them.
oil: change it often w/ mfr-spec oil
tires: rotate em @5k if setup allows and you care about long tire life (stagger/non stagger)
don't use brain energy on such topics. lots of guys stress too much over simple stuff. the car needs to work for you, not the other way around. i learned this early on when someone said this exact thing to me before. a bulb went off in my head.

For the record, the OP’s original question was, IMO a reasonable one. But like most threads, side-tracks are inevitable. It’s wasted breath and energy to tell others how to conduct their questions and comments. Case in point, myself included!
Try taking your own advice!
