Add to Google Calendar SHOULD NOT require google account access

When Zoom sends an email invite to people for an event, when someone clicks on the Add to Google Calendar link - Zoom is requesting access to peoples google calendars.  

1) This is not necessary - it is possible and I see it with every other add to google calendar link I click on - that the event is populated in my calendar and I just have to click save.  No other event company requires me to grant them access to my google calendar.

2) It may reduce attendance.  People may not do this, because they don't trust companies who ask for such access, and they may miss the event as a result.

Do other people have this complaint? 

Does Zoom management know they are requesting access to people's calendars when they don't have to (and shouldn't)?
