This is the main reason, in my opinion. It also explains why most of these fan theories aren't very imaginative. People at that age haven't consumed enough actual darker material to know these concepts are overdone.
Something like Adventure Time is interesting because it wholly embraces this idea and dials it to 11.
Maybe a controversial opinion, but I think the problem with your modern blockbusters, especially in the Star Wars and Marvel universes, is that they can't decide where they lie on this transition point. They absolutely have that childish element, but too many people are afraid to accept that and take it too seriously. They can do both, they just need to be honest about it.
