It's just surprisingly new. I'd bet the pandemic played a large part in it. Stepsister stuff has always been a niche, but not nearly as prevalent as it is today. I would know, I used to work in the industry.
Lol, no, that stuff was catching on at least 15 years ago, and was a massive meme before the pandemic. The "what are you doing step bro," meme is from 2018, and the industry had already gone hard in that direction for a while before that.
