I 100000000% blame Windows for this. I used to see actual error messages, but most of the ones i saw once win11 became the norm were things like “💃🤰🤷♀️” especially with Outlook and Word.
I assume its to promote AI tools or to force you to call their help line to be upsold to
Nowadays most normies see an actual exception and panic like it’s a horror movie and the computer has gained sentience. Management tells programmers to hide the error message, making it harder for literally everybody
Unfortunately this seems to be most error messages these days. Often it doesn’t even pretend to give a reason.
Some software just silently removes or grays out the button for a failed operation without an error message at all!

It’s been a trend long before win 11 hit the market.
Or “:( something went wrong” instead of a useful error message.
