I think people have been inundated with popular stories that constantly prioritize plot twists, so the instinct when handed anything with intrigue is to assume it'll try to do the opposite of anything they expect.
Which, of course, isn't necessarily what a good story does.

Making a popular show is crazy cuz you can explicitly set certain things up through clues and symbolism and there will be people who are like "I see all that, and I'm acknowledging that I see all that... Anyway my theory is that the opposite is true. ☝️😀"
