Why do receptacles near the pool need GFCI protection but pool pumps/heaters not need GFCI protection?

Who says pool pumps do not need gfci protection. They sure do but at one time they did not. Now all single phase pool pumps need gfci protection
Possibly because hard wired pool equipment is hard bonded to the equipotential grid while random devices plugged
into receptacles are not?
Yet....................I'm sure they are working on it for 2023.A 3Ø pool pump does not require GFCI protection but 1Ø pumps do.
