what's the appeal of switching?

i just dont get it. my friend and i were discussing junjou mistake and they said that asahina and isaka would be a great switch couple. verbally i agreed with them but in my head i disagreed so hard. and then there's people foaming at the mouth bc they want jake and shin (shutline) to switch. what's the appeal of switching??? i think i might be one of the few people that hate it, but i also know that im an incredibly rigid person, and i am not very flexible... switching seems like a matter of being flexible/willing to change and do different things? idk if that makes sense, but i follow very rigidly with the whole top/bottom thing and get kind of icked when people want the couple to switch. id love to know why you guys like it, im honestly rly curious. thanks for the replies ^^

    tbh I'm not too into it. Only time it's interesting is when the person who claims to "always" top gets bottomed, but I can't even say it's true switching if they don't show both sides. To each their own, it's just meh to me ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍

    I think its cuz its more realistic to actual gay couples. its nice to see couples in bl switch, im only into some of them tho, theres very few manga where i wish they would switch. I do kinda agree with you tho, for me i dont like it when people wish a couple would switch when its finally a feminine top. I think thats mostly because i dont like twinky bottoms much
