I don't have a "competing explanation", except that it's not likely to be as simple as laying it on a particular demographic or certain professions. Very little ever is.
Read back, I asked a question - is there a trend/tendency towards. Everyone who's responded has gone straight to reasons why.
I'm also not inclined towards your snarky extremes, equating fanciful and enjoyable and setting them against the saddest and hardest to read.
