I can’t believe it’s a requirement.

Cord and plug connections can be used as disconnects and as motor controllers for motors up to 1/3 hp, so why not for this application.

Neither does my wife's curling iron, but I installed a hot tub timer in the bathroom after she forgot to unplug it a few times and melted some things.
