It was never needed in the past and ads no context that a simple exclamation point or bold letters could do if a person wants to add emphasis.

Looking for an explanation, yes? It's a linguistic convention, totally. I mean, you know, we add a lot of unnecessary words, like, serious. It's superfluous verbage. Look, I know it seems to be a recent thing, but it's, like, been going on for a long time, right?

I think this has been my favorite answer in any of these threads. So concise and tongue in cheek, I love it.
