AliExpress is a Wild West of shady medical products like these. Why does Elon Musk spend tens of thousands on hair plugs when he could buy a Chinese remedy that would give him a full mane of hair in a week for 10 bucks

Because:

young men are bombarded with internet pornography from childhood which idolizes and selects for enormous penises,
we as a culture embrace body-shaming tropes like "big/small dick energy",
people are more online and less IRL-social than ever and thus less likely to have affirming sexual or social experiences (e.g. seeing normal penises on other boys in a locker room),
and our society is still so puritanical and weird about sex that no young man is having a conversation with his parents about how to process all this information to maintain a positive body image,

so they conclude that in order to be a valid man they must have an enormous penis

Genuinely wish thought countering this would enter mainstream thought. I don’t want my partner to have a huge dick. I like to not feel like I’m being bisected at my vagina. I also don’t enjoy the feeling of someone bottoming out in me. Just learn how to treat women. Seriously.

You forgot:

When your back just isn't flexible enough anymore to perform autofellatio because it's getting too difficult to reach. A couple of inches can make all the difference here, and prevent spinal injury. We should be thankful that these entrepreneurs are out there looking out for aging former gymnasts and goth rock singers.
