There is no reason to require this setting for users who aren’t posting live videos.

      In this case by hitting create post, it triggers the permissions for mic/camera because it tries to activate them.

      As to why, it’s probably because they want you to create videos, so it defaults to that when trying to create a post. And then in there, you can go for a text post instead. But I don’t use Instagram so I don’t know if anyone who does can confirm that.
