Oh so we're worried about people pandering to fetishes now. We definitely don't see any of that in all those shounen or isekais of "good guys" with slaves, or unnecessary harems.

But, to answer your actual question because with Omegaverse you can explore themes you can't with just a standard gay couple through stuff like pair bonding, and heat cycles.

And while a lot of writers may not be thinking to deeply about it in this manner, it has always struck me how in a way OV stories are a somewhat exaggerated look into the female experience. But, allows the writers and readers a measure of distance by the character not technically being female.

And, yes some of us just like the idea of mpreg, of a world in which both "men and women" can get pregnant. Nothing wrong with exploring that dynamic in a story.
