Why is it so satusfying when you pluck a hair out and you get the whole waxxy follicle/root?

It's grooming behavior that's worsened by anxiety, so "succeeding" feels good for two reasons

That's not the follicle, that's the bulb at the base of the hair. The follicle is under the skin and the hair will grow back. If you want the hair permanently gone, you need laser treatment, electrolysis, or whatever.

Does it damage the follicle more tho when you yank out all that mass as opposed to just the hair itself?
Its not even necessarily that I want it gone forever depending on where it is. Its like pulling a succulent vegatable out of the ground haha. In my mind, it makes the sploosh sound ray made in Scary Movie 2 lol

Because the more you get out, the longer it will take to grow back. Extra points if it bleeds, because it might not grow back.

Because it happens smoothly. Because of the wax.

Assuming it's an unwanted hair, it's like pulling a weed out by the root. You know that sucker won't be coming back anytime soon.
Also guessing there's the element of: pain followed by aftermath/relief. The sort of stuff BDSM folks enjoy with the dripping wax and whatnot. Or so I've been told.
Ngl, its even better when there's a teensy amount of blood. Its like "BAM!", gotcha mother sucker
Love your username.
