1. A lot of people write ace headcanons because they're young and nervous about the idea of getting in relationships and having sex, and that's a safe-feeling way to work all that out

2. A lot of people literally don't know how to write a story that isn't a romance that culminates in sex so they just default to that when writing ace characters

3. There are some ace people who have that as part of their experience and want it reflected in fic.

4. Non-ace people who want to write an ace character but ship them default to that because it's what they imagine (or have experienced) that's what a relationship with an ace person would be like for them.

Unfortunately those all combined mean there's some characters where that's like 90% of the fic and speaking as an aroace with zero interest in that plot it's the worst
