The reason is fun, and no justification is needed. Maybe you've spent too long looking at the world in a purely progress-driven way. EDIT: I've been there before, but imo the point of progress is to have fun in the end anyway

No, I am precisely not looking at the world in a purely progress-driven way. I think many of creators do - they think they bring a piece of progress to the world, where in fact they might bring regress - in this context, a service which is enabling people to sound like someone else, adding up to the pile of confusion and fake content.

> Funny to see myself being downvoted for a harmless call for a reason
You made a critical snarky dismissal comment, what did you expect?
Might I suggest reviewing: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
Here’s a couple to specifically call out:
1. Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.
2. Please don't comment about the voting on comments. It never does any good, and it makes boring reading.
The fact someone did something and put a substantial effort into it is not a reason good enough to justify said effort (other than the benefits of learrning) and the product that was created. The world is full of things which actually made it worse place.
Another comment is actually a meta-comment and might be shocking to some people here:
downvoting is not a good method of making someone stop saying statements perceived by some as unconfortable. In fact, there is nothing wrong with earning points first and then burning them with saying comments that are feared by certain individuals to the level that they "must" be downvoted...
