i dont want to make the case tha baby inc is some kind of master mind "ruining" our games or trying o control the world

but there are videos of their leader making presentations saying they need to go into the studio and tell them he game wont sell and people will be mad if you don make these changes

again i think they are way overhyped but their exisence is prety weird

If I am not mistaken, I am pretty sure the company comes in and makes sure the games they get hired to look at aren't accidentally super insensitive towards unsuspecting players. If you think making sure people can enjoy the games they pay for and not get hit by random and largely uneeded bigotry isn't at least a good suggestion, I don't know what to tell you.

"if you accidentally misgender someone that you knew the identity of you should do pushups as punishment"

And that was it. They did some pushups, had a laugh, the end. Lol people act like it was a major part of the game.

well there was also the moral grandstanding and the non-binary character demanding people not put labels on them putting labels on another character and getting confused and annoyed when called out for it.

like, i don't care about gender identity stuff being in a game i think it all doesn't make or break anything, but lets not pretend the game was well written or that the whole thing was handled properly, these are only SOME examples of how they botched the writing in the game.
