They get even more detailed information about your buying and spending habits. They can use this information to better manage their stock and sales to maximize profit, and probably more importantly, they can sell your contact information and buying habits to other companies who are in the very lucrative business of aggregating consumer data and monetizing it.
Your blunt coworker has to explain himself or risks being taken as rude by people who don't know him. You yourself couldn't determine if he was being rude to you without some additional context.
Without further context, you don't know how to interpret an email that says where is my spreadsheet motherfucker.
In both cases, you're saying further social cues are needed to determine if someone you don't know very well is being rude or not. Hence, why people emailing people they don't know very well in a professional capacity include niceties to convey context and tone.
I use this when the tone of my email would otherwise be, where's my spreadsheet motherfucker?? It's nice to modify the overall tone of the email to something more friendly.

It's because native English speakers are seeing it in their All feed. If it's appearing in the All feed and the user has their feed set to English language only, then the poster failed to set what language their post was in. So they are downvoting the post for not setting the language.
I personally don't agree with this, I'm annoyed when I see a post in All in a language I don't know, but I simply block the user and move on. But maybe the persistent downvotes would call attention to the issue and encourage the poster to use the language settings in the future. As is happening right here.
