The only reasons I can think are:
1. The 50,000 dollar reimbursement for ventilator usage
2. Trying to kill people to keep the “numbers” up and scare us
3. The doctors are retards

UC Health seems to disagree and says anything south of an SpO2 of 85% is put on a ventilator.

The Pan American Health Organization technically says LESS than 90% if “not improving”
