Because a lot of it is pretty simply rooted in economics.

If you want your kids to go to school, there needs to be resources for that to happen (and you personally have to have enough resources that you aren't using them for labor).

Why shouldn't it?

Different technologies, sure. But the liberating effects of labor saving devices is pretty tough to dispute.
