Treating it seriously, I think that people are interested in growth because:

if we aren't growing, then due to attrition we are slowly dying
people seem to want a little bit more content, especially about niche topics that currently we have to keep going back to Reddit for bc that's where it is at
solving the problems inhibiting growth may make us better overall and our experiences here more enjoyable not only for new people but the existing userbase as well - so here growth is the diagnostic indicator of deeper phenomena

So it is not to feed the advertising machine and stockholder valuation, but even with the profit factor removed there are others that remain.

As I mentioned (and you listed) growth has its pros, but the troll is basically going "growth good EDIT WOW THANKS FOR LE GOLD KIND STRANGER!". And in Reddit's case (relevant because the troll is comparing both platforms), if anything the excessive growth already led to problems.

Lolz "gold", that takes me back. Also AL1 CAPES SETNENCES R AWLAYS TEH BESTE W4Y TOO CONMUMICATE EVERAH PIONT (and if I spelled ~~every~~anything correctly there, then I did something wrong!😋)

I already forgot what the troll said, intentionally as it is irrelevant 😉😋

Those all caps you're using are cruiser control. The ones used in Reddit are to show excitement. Get excited for the product, "wow" /s.

Derp. ...it's the sensible thing to do here, I know.
