Why do people get upset by OPTIONAL difficult assists?

I agree that there should be easier modes, even for the souls games. Not only for people who are not good at the games, but also for people like me who are students or have a lot of work and no time to grind and die all the time. It's like I have one hour to pay this game and I die again and again and don't progress at all. I don't have the time to improve at the game and inconsistent playing isn't helping me either. Now imagine everytime you have free time, you do and you don't progress much at all after a month because of the time constraints and the ridiculous amounts of grind and death. You wouldn't wanna play those games anymore right. So you wouldn't buy them not because you're not interested but because they are essentially inaccessible to you. As a dev you are making a weird decision because you're losing profits and new fans and have purposefully made a bubble that does not allow your game and player base to grow. As a player it really doesn't affect you at all because you're still playing the same game. So it's beneficial to the new players and the devs as long as it is optional. You can even add a really hard mode like megaman levels of hard or even harder for thsoe players that like the stuff.

Here's a crazy Idea, play something else. This is what bothers me the most about this argument. All these people obsessed with playing a particular game that they do not like or dont have the time to enjoy. Instead of just playing something else, NO lets change the entire game to fit my gaming needs. This is a disgusting kind of reasoning, I loved playing Dota 2 back when I was younger because I had lots of free time, but nowadays I can't play it because the matches take too long and the game is too time consuming. Should I A: start making a petition for the Devs to reduce match time so they end in 20 minutes, altering the feel of the game completely, or B: Play something else? This is a no brainer for me.

Jesus if you really want to play a piss easy Dark Souls all you need is to buy it on PC and get easy cheats that make your character as strong as you want. Even on console most Dark Souls games have had Glitches where you could duplicate souls and items and make the game a walking simulator because you had so many stats and gear that you were impossible to kill.

Devs could easily make a quick session for DOTA2 if that would bring relevant revenue.
