I don't actually know if this is true, so somebody jump in if I'm wrong, but the answer is, because it doesn't actually help, and may even make the underlying problem worse.

Trends don't always operate with the level of nuance needed to be an actual solution, but the problem still requires what it requires to be solved, whether or not somebody's heart is in the right place.
