At least where I live there’s a cultural learned helplessness around sewing. “Nobody does it anymore so how am I supposed to have learned?” or “doesn’t sewing something cost more than just buying a new garment?” (both I’ve personally heard people say)
You would be surprised how many people are unable to do that, who are physically capable of doing it.

For sure it’s likely either a learned helplessness or a passive indifference. People like to give up before they even try.
