The whole point of centrally managed unifi line - is the central management and orchestration. Just imagine small hotel with 5 different networks, 20 APs, a few switches, a router and access control. Even residential house with 3 APs would be pretty tedious to keep going - channel selection for all APs depending on 5 neighbors channel use, client hand off from AP to AP without dropping the connection, ....
