I had never heard of annual DHPP until Max and Teddy came into my life. Our vet agreed to a 3-year plan for them, but I still don't understand why they need it.
...other than vets seeing this as a money maker. They had to have offered some explanation.

While there is a business component, I do think vets also want to ensure pets are seen regularly and not go years without an exam.
