It's like complaining why books has roughly all the same shape when paper allows so many formats and creativity. It's clear, it's because uniformity can optimize costs and people is more interested in content and not on the container.

Yeah I'm guilty of having a boring website, but it allows for easy readability without my having to spend weeks trying to balance out artiness and accessibility.
