No Mention of Removing Mac From "Find My" Prior to Trade-In in "Prep your device" Topic

Why is there no mention of removing the device from the "Find My" application before erasing the hard drive in the Apple Support topic pertaining to preparing a device for trade-in? Removal from "Find My" would appear to be an important step in the process.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.4

Signing out of iCloud (step 3 in What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your Mac - Apple Support ) turns off Find My Mac.

See the following from Turn off Find My on your devices - Apple Support

Note: You can also turn off Find My on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac by turning off iCloud completely on that device. Turning off iCloud turns off all iCloud features on the device.
