Just think about it, you and a couple of friends are watching classic South Park or something edgy. And then, some person comes who's not even a fan of it, demands changes (censorship) or outright turns off the program. Just why do people do this? Why do they ruin everyone's fun?
Seriously, they are. This is by far the most important issue, if they made their asses fatter it would improve viewership. If they made the ponies thicc prudes would complain, which would only draw in even more viewers. Twilight Sparkle, the protagonist of the series has a fat ass, and her teacher Princess Celestia, who's ass is even fatter.
The main reason is uncanny valley. When something looks human but not quite. A perfect example would be a robot trying to mimic being human, it looks unsettling. It's somewhat insulting towards the ponies, you have Twilight Sparkle there a beautiful unicorn and you can't embrace her just because she's not fully in human shape, even though she has all the qualifications to be a sapient-minded
Now I imagined new opening for mlp. It started like original, but when Celestia received Twilight's report, she sees big baner "Free cake". Than she troved report away and jumped from the window into cake and started to eat it. Luna watched it with a big eyes and open mouth. In the end we will see a banner: "My little pony:buttgrowing cakes are magic."
Me too!

That sounds cool for an awesome fan made video! You could probably pitch the idea to someone who can make such a video.
