I imagine because the demand for DHP is just that much. Asian supermarket teas always have those dirt cheap 'DHP' in those tall cannisters like you linked.

fwiw I'm not a big white tea drinker but I had some silver needle and white peony recently and both of them felt more full-bodied at 190 vs 170 or 180. It just felt like it was missing *something* when brewed at a lower temp

190 just feels like a magical temp for most of my oolongs and chinese blacks
