Advanced Trade Feedback

Why is authorisation required for endpoints that would normally be considered public, such as https://coinbase.com/api/v3/brokerage/products?

It would also be great to have a migration page to show a mapping of the Coinbase Pro API endpoints to the new Advanced Trade API endpoints. And in general, making it clearer in the documentation about what API is being referred to would also be great.

Edit: regarding the authorisation issues, it looks as though the domain requires a www. prefix.

Edit2: Nope, I stand corrected. I could only access the above public endpoint without the security headers because of the cookie header. Using curl or a private browsing window also gave me an unauthorised error. Which brings me back to my first question of: why are public endpoints being guarded like this?
