I assume the idea is to keep improving some concept you want to perfect?
I think a lot of people have their "comfort" themes, stories, tropes.
It's like, idk, liking vanilla? It's your favorite flavor, you'll eat any dessert that has it.
For some people, they like vanilla so much they won't eat anything else. I suppose it's the same with writing. It doesn't always have to be about building up towards a "better" more perfect product.
I eat stracciatella (and vanila) only but everyone makes it differently and its never the same. So realistically even tho it might be similar to another work there always needs to be something special about it. One has their favourite ice cream shop after all, but it can only shine if you try other things that are close enough.
I cant understand that people dont strive to get a more perfect product.
I think this was just a metaphor - like what's the main reason behind focusing on one type of story? Some writers genuinely do keep writing the same thing over and over again, it can be confusing from the reader's pov, but sometimes you just want that same old vanilla done in a million different ways. It's more like that.
"How don't you get sick of vanilla?"
"I just like it."
So, there are writers who keep writing the same type of story hoping to finally get it right this time, and then those who just enjoy writing that one topic.
It's basically like, those themes done in lower quality can still hit harder for people who are particularly attached to whatever they are. Bad vanilla is better than good chocolate to some people. It's the same thing with writing the same tropes over and over. It's not necessarily about improving, though most people desire to get better as they're practicing.
