Because people who never needed to use an annoying thing like to imagine and romantize how they would use it. Completely ignoring reality.
I hate how tv seems to be written by people who have no idea how regular people live. Like how in tv shows, people pop in on someone at home and person is fully made up and dressed, and their homes are always spotless. You pop in on me unexpected and I'm going to be in my boxer briefs, angry that I'm being disturbed, and there are kids toys and laundry all over the living room
I always found it funny how writers portray themselves as upper middle class in New York living in in apartment only the top 1% of writers can afford when the reality is the opposite.
I think it's more that if TV was just real life nobody would watch it
I actually love shoes like Sopranos that pay attention to those details. Why is the soprano home so clean? They have a maid. Then Tony moves out into his mom's old place and it's a shit show, dishes, pizza boxes and beer bottles everywhere. Clothes all over the floor
