It hasn't - he's just making forum noise.
But I'm wondering why you wouldn't prefer a 357 revolver instead? The Ruger Alaskan is a very large & heavy chunk of steel. A S&W N-Frame revolver is still a large handful. There are a lot of revolvers chambered for .357, .45acp that would be much better "home defense". A lot of firearms would be much better home defense than the Alaskan.
This is America and you can buy what you want. But you posted about "home defense" and "ccw" which are two areas where the Alaskan kindof sucks. For example, you could get a Glock model 23 which would give you 4" barrel 357Mag power, 13 shots, rust free, easy maintenance, easily CCW'able, for $500 new. Or for pure home defense you could get a Mossberg M500 shotgun for $200 used that would last you and your heirs forever.
