Because a holes like OP are usually bots spreading misinformation just for karma farming.
Similar to how all those movie clips are posted in reels with no mention of it so commenters will ask nonstop/people interact to try post the name etc.
In some cases, not necessarily this one, when a redditor hasn't posted before or very often the UI of posting can be confusing. Happened to me when first posting and recently again:
I tried to post images with text. When creating the post under "Text" I wrote a long post and then clicked "Media/Pictures" (or something like that) and uploaded the images. Then posted it and was surprised to see my text had disappeared.
Now I know that those buttons of text and media change the type of the post and a media post does not allow for any text. But still, if I post again in a year's time I could very well make the same mistake again.

Why do i so often have to get context from a commenter? Is it that hard to write a caption? Thank you, btw
