I think it’s a low maintenance haircut, easy to put into a silk head cover at night too. Also why elderly ladies tend to have shorter hair, it’s easier to take care of.
That said, there are plenty of short haircuts that don’t have the ‘Karen’ vibe about them, so I imagine some take pride in being the ‘i want to speak to your manager’ ‘girlboss’ types
As soon as you pass 50, hairdressers start trying to sell you short layered cuts with a lot of different colours/shades “to hide the grey”. Said hairstyle requires VERY frequent maintenance cuts/colours to look anything like good. And so consumerism is served, and the middle aged and older women are reminded yet again that they have to spend a lot of money to continue to be acceptable members of society.
Which is total bullshit from where I stand. I LIKE my grey hairs (only they’re silver not grey). And my raggedy hair chop that I do myself with clippers. I call it my Coyote cut (not a wolf cut). And if other people have a problem with that, then it is by definition their problem. I will die on this hill.
A Karen hairdo.

after all the negative publicity this haircut has why do they still do it?
