Cause its so convenient, fast and efficient. I have kids so I can make food quickly (sous vide'd chicken I've done some days earlier, usually) and it doesnt draw electricity as much as my normal oven. I quite like it, and it makes my life easier.

I orginally bought it like 6 years ago to make chicken wings, but nowadays I use it for pretty much everything.

You dont have to like it, thats your prerogative.

how do you even know that?

Can't speak for them, but I've had a smart monitor which shows live consumption. Took note of the consumption while using the oven against baseline consumption, and the same for the air fryer.

Air fryer consumed approximately half the electricity for an equivalent amount of time in my case, but it's made better by the air fryer needing less time to reach temperature and cook whatever it is I'm making.
