"Updated Wednesday, September 4, 2024 5:10 p.m. EST - Amazon reached out to deny the reports of a crack down on singing along with the radio in trucks and provided this PR video clip as evidence. A PR spokesperson told Jalopnik: “This post is completely inaccurate. Amazon has never issued guidance or communications to Delivery Service Partners that prohibits singing in the vehicle.”"

I think at least a part of this is because it was turned into a quasi religion. And there's no place for even mild criticism among believers.
A system that can't self-correct will self-destruct at some point.
