Why does every Thempark MMO have a quest where you dig through poop?

As if it's not bad enough slogging through a linear quest-hub solo-centric themepark, I believe all of them have at least one quest where you have to dig through poop or collect poop. It's borderline abusive!
It started with WoW- they have like 10 poop quests in the game. OK, WoW can be kind of childish at times, that's fine, but it seems like literally every MMO since then has had at least one.
I'm playing Blade and Soul and yesterday, sure enough, I stumble on a quest to collect turds.
Why???

Just played one in Blade and Soul like I mentioned.
Even Archeage has one and it's not a traditional themepark...
I honestly can't think of a single MMORPG I've played that didn't involve my hero, the supposed savior of the lands, at some point either digging through poop or collecting it.
I think the worst one was when you had to pick the berry out of crap in Nagrand and then you had to eat it to breath underwater.
But honestly, who writes this stuff? I can see some basement dweller holed up in some cubicle just sitting in there chuckling to himself as he makes this thinking he's funny as shit.
As for why poop and why its aimed at young boys? Obviously the increase in same sex has to do with this. Now I voted FOR it, since I don't care what people are into. Plus it helps control overpopulation. but...there are more men on men relationships...more poop fetishes...seems like they might coincide with each other. And young boys are increasingly finding themselves to either be a girl or/and into other men.
For me, I'm not into poop fetish. But I have no issues with people with a poop fetish. And it might seem like a joke, but its a serious statement by the developers, you just need to think deeply on it and get high to figure it out like I just did.

There was only one poop quest in BnS thankfully.
Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile
On topic: I'd have the same complaints about TV shows. Just about every TV series ever made has had some mindblowingly stupid episode that all other TV series before it has had.
Ex: A man dreaming he's pregnant, fantasizing about being cowboys, women giving birth, etc.
And don't even get me started on that stupid infamous scream that is in basically every movie that ever gets made in the last 80 years ---- so lame.
I don't get why this has to be a thing either. Maybe it's some writer's sadistic fantasy, making people sift through or collect poop.

Realy it's just a game. It's just virtual poop. What's the big deal. It's no worse than all mmo's having a rat quest.
