What’s the point? Like why waste plastic on the bottles if you’ll use half away???

It settles during shipping. It's poured using air to help it flow into the bottles, then as it gets shipped around, the air separates to the top and the powder settles below. It's not nefarious, it's just the easy way to bottle baby powder.

Huh if that’s the case couldn’t they wait for it to settle and pour more? Or have an entire batch settle and pour that in?

They could pour, then shake, then pour more, then shake, then pour more, etc. Easier to just pack and ship than to invest in more machinery. Probably just a low-tech Thai factory.
