A few reasons but mainly people copy what others do and these days lower protein is in fashion and you have 101 experts stating you don't need high protein to grow and they aren't actually wrong. Now one of the reasons it's in fashion is because it's much easier. For most people it's extremely hard to eat very high protein. Carbs and fats are generally easier to eat in large amounts (calorie total). It's also very expensive to eat high protein so that's another factor. Lot's of people also struggle to digest high amounts of protein but in the right environment (slowly building up over years) and taking digestive aids it's much more doable.
Now there are many different ways up the mountain so for many they take the easier and cheaper route that is advertised all over so who can blame them. Nevertheless, I think most of us (me included) would get better results if we consumed higher amounts of quality protein consistently.
