Why stupid? It's cool to have analog-only things.

Recording from line in was the way to make mix tapes. Seems like it's missing the record function completely

It also most likely has the same cheap head and mechanics as any other new tape player you can get nowadays. If you want good quality, get something that was good in the 90s.

That's often true with new models of old technology. It's the same with mechanical typewriters: there are still new ones constructed and they are far from ugly; but if you want to actually use one, run far away and buy a vintage one.
