I think it's a similar thing to TV settings.
In years past when walking around towns I've seen loads of TVs in peoples front rooms that were obviously set to maximum saturation.
It's as if they are thinking I paid for colour, so I'm going to get as much of it as I can!
Personally I couldn't watch such images for even 2 minutes, in general I tend to prefer slightly muted colours. High saturation often works well on very simple compositions, but rarely otherwise IMO.
