Because realistically nobody is against it. People can whine all the want, they will verify anyway rather than miss out on online gaming, social media, porn etc. You personally might be the outlier and maybe you even convinced your family and friends, but sadly unless at the bare minimum 50% of users outright leave the platform enforcing age verification they couldn’t care less about our feelings.
And it’s not like it says in big red writing on the side of the next console that says “BY PURCHASING THIS CONSOLE YOU WILL NEED TO PROVIDE AGE VERIFICATION OTHERWISE ITS A BRICK”.

I think it’s more fair to say people will still comply, rather than saying nobody is against it.
It’s amazing how far most people will bend before breaking.
True. Unless you walk away from the platform, in earnest, age verification moves forward.

Yes. Most would rather kneel.
I’d rather use an old console and play offline. Don’t feed the system by buying more digital.
