You’re the person who has decided that discord is a “chat app”. Discord themselves say:

   Discord was started to solve a big problem: how to communicate with friends around the world while playing games online.[1]

It’s not too much of a stretch to see that they would see streaming as a logical part of their core functionality as a result.

That said, maybe it’s not the app for you. I totally get why someone would want a single-purpose tool - that’s generally the way I go and I’m not crazy about discord personally having used it a lot, written bots for etc. It’s not reasonable to criticise them for making different decisions from the ones you would make when they are going for a goal that you don’t share.
