With no personal knowledge here my guess is that's just marketing speak, and the real reason it was removed is... well... Slack is an enterprise product and a lot of enterprises don't want or need this, and the idea of a vector for remote control even being possible just blocks a lot of sales and complicates security audits in BigCo. I'm sure they offered a way to disable it but the feature was still in there so... just my guess though.

Nah, Zoom is an enterprise product, and they have this feature. (Slack is referring people who want remote control functionality to use Zoom.)
