I would agree with you, if the camera lenses were about half the diameter that they are in that render. The large diameter (spare me the "because good camera" spiel, I know) looks like clown status on that render, and if that's really the diameter of the lenses, I'd rather see an all black square.
Agreed, if the diameter is small, it should be a painted Square. If the lenses are going to be huge, black square.
 
Because they want to. It is another of Apple’s “courageous” moves that no one needs nor wants.

Um ok?! The piece of information that I’ve seen is it’s because it’s going to be a visual cue for people to put the AirPods or  watch their for the reverse wireless charging.
 
Do people really need a visual cue? Isn't it obvious you'd put the airpods or whatever on the center?

Sure they don’t need to place it in the middle as people should know roughly where they need to place it to charge their watch or air pods but it does make sense to put it there for that reason.
