 Hi @vapvarun

 Technically they are directory pages in the sense BuddyPress has always
 created WordPress Pages for them: it's easier this way to customize slug
 and title I believe.

 In BP 11.0, you'll see you can use the `activate` or `register` page in
 menus:

 Still in BP 11.0, you'll find them into the list of BuddyPress pages as
 well:

 To preserve the pre-12.0 possibility to customize these specific pages
 slugs and titles, we absolutely need to include them into the URLs
 settings tab.

 If it's a semantic issue, we can always rename the corresponding Accordion
 panels like "Specific pages". But again, technically they are treated like
 directory pages 😅
