Because it's proprietary garbage. If there are FOSS alternatives, I'm most definitely going to use them instead of proprietary software, let alone proprietary software by companies like Meta. And since there are plenty of those alternatives: No WhatsApp for me.

"it implies women in general."
No, it implies a specific group of women, namely those with such piercings.
Why do you focus on the word "expectations"? The definition you yourself posted in this thread clearly mentions "hopes OR expectations". I think the use of the term "disappointment" in this case refers to the "hopes" part. You can hope for something from someone without expecting it from them.
Why is that ridiculous? Seems like a totally fine solution to me. Probably not possible in most cases due to licencing issues, but if not this is the best thing a developer could do. And making games and/or their servers open source isn't even the only option. In most cases it will suffice to just provide server binaries and patch the game to make it work with self-hosted servers, or just patch it to make it playable offline. It's that simple. Developing games with that in mind from the beginning makes this even easier.
