PC Fascination with games starting you out naked and in the middle of nowhere

Starting each game is like being on an episode of Naked & Afraid but with zombies!it's getting clearer and clearer that 7dtd is a feature driven game more than a story/lore driven game.Adding behemoth, removing behemoth.
Adding mutant bees, removing mutant bees.
Adding raiders, removing raiders.
Removing fat Hawaii tourist, adding fat Hawaii tourist
Nurses dressed like they are from the 50's, but houses have flat tv's and the cars are modern.
Every 6th woman in the world worked as a stripper before Apocalypse.
One of the most common jobs as a man was utility worker, cowboy, farmer or....biker
Oh and yes you can make a camp fire, clothes, stone axe, bandage perfect wood frames, but cant boil an egg.
So...Starting out naked is a great feature!
I don't think it's a common theme. Some games labelled as survival but not really survival like this game, Ark or Rust have you starting off naked but if you look at the real survival games out there, those consistently voted in the top 3 such as The Long Dark, you don't start naked but they don't need you to start naked because their games don't turn into whack-a-mole (zombie) and loot container simulator 10 minutes after spawning......probably because they don't nerf their games when people cry they are too hard.

I blame a lot of changes 7dtd has gotten on the console version even existing, I mean we had that nice right click menu for one alpha, then it came out for console and they removed it in the next pc alpha for no apparent reason. Not to mention alot of the features seem to be more akin to stuff you'd see in console games. Like I always said, if a orignally pc game series is going to get a console version, expect the base game to get butchered to hell and back so it can work on a console for the braindead casuals that usually have them. Skyrim and fallout 4 anyone? Both were horribly dumbed down compared to the last game due to todays console markets.
Even more Proof:

I'd like to see 'Primitive Survival Expert" as something you develop into instead of the default class. Flintknapping and making clothes out of grass make more sense to me as perks for people who want to play the primitive angle, not where you start. Where I think most people should start is finding or having basic clothes out of the nearest house (or from the nearest bodies if all else failed) and grabbing a kitchen knife, hammer, baseball bat, or large branch to start.
I also want to know what happened to all the tools and utensils everywhere, did the Z "virus" destroy all of them too? Even if the setting is a LONG time in the future there would be tons of basic stuff just laying around. Sure, it's a game, and maybe you are playing one of the people who are partially immune (thus the memory loss), but where did all the stuff go?
