It often feels like "fans" of nearly anything are totally fucking clueless as to how anything in the world works.

Most people in general are clueless
Considering they pass every failing students in the US, it can’t be a surprise here.
With the grammar in your comment, I don't think you should be the one throwing shade.
shiuld
Rough time for a typo, huh?
If you look at their post history, they have a superiority complex. Zero compassion or desire to give anyone else a break.
I wasn’t aware I was throwing shade, but I do have COVID-19. So I’m sorry if I slacked and my lack of solid sleep for over 3 days peaked out, causing you to reveal you’re an unapologetic jerk lol.
The only person throwing shade, is you. Unless mistaken, he’s referring to the American school systems, “No Child Left Behind”, policy. There was no personal reference to the poster he responded to. As for remarks on his grammar, perhaps check your own spelling before you throw stones.
No we'll bother Reggie like we always have.
Gotta bother Bowser now.
Not nearly as much fun. Reggie is still up for it.
Grab the axe behind him.
quite a dick move for them to see it to be popular enough to continue re-releasing but not translate it for other regions
It's not even about translating it. IIRC they have full permission from the creators of the fan translation to use their script and code to get it up and running.
Some people hypothesize that there are legal issues in areas of the game (such as the music) making it difficult, but that didn't stop them from releasing Earthbound...
Another common hypothesis is that they don't want to deal with backlash over some of the more odd choices in the game. Some people might take offense to the magypsies, thinking that they're somehow making a joke of trans or non-binary folks. Others might just lose their shit over there being folks like the magypsies in the game at all. And that's ignoring the mermaid air refill things making out with a child.
I love the game, but it's far from standard Nintendo fare in terms of tone and content.
That's true, but Nintendo also doesn't seem big on censoring their old content. Jynx's design got changed in Pokemon, but most re-releases generally don't have many major changes (even cosmetic ones). I can't think of anything else they'd try to change.
I guess Mario RPG removed a few potentially "scandalous" things, yet they still let Mario find Peach's "???" near her bed.
I guess the Magypsies are the problem with Mother 3. Too much redesign work.
That's Nintendo for ya.
