Why do "they" (bloggers) want to get rid of their own writing?

What are the good reasons to write a blog, minus those that involve you actually writing it?

There's money to be made if you can build an audience. There are many ifs on the way of course, but some people do earn handsomely from publishing. They're called content creators or influencers.
I guess just status farming, or some sort of delusion about writing being a hindrance to conveying your ideas, much like with writing code.
