These skittish characters are a reflection of "trigger warning" Twitter/Tumblr culture, millennials pushing 40, still being taken care of by their parents, and never working real jobs. This entire universe serves to house these entities, human and robot, that are incapable of coping in a real environment. It's probably why the more reasonable and grounded characters (e.g. Steve, Angus, Penelope, Raven, and, until recently, Sven) have been gradually written out, leaving just the "40 going on 14" crowd.
