USB Killers are expensive though. No one's intentionally ditching those for randos to find

Expensive is relative. You can find a sketchy USB Killer on AliExpress for like $6.

Maybe expensive as a single throwaway device, but not very expensive to cause pure chaos to a bunch of random people.

Are they? I thought they were basically just a few capacitors hooked up wrong to a USB port.

Why would they? Simple boost coverter costs about 0.5€.
