Inexperience and young girls mistake being a dick with confidence
Also, young people often are bad at determining how impressive someone is so they go off the social cues of just believing that they're acting genuinely in line with their status. This means someone moderately attractive treating 21 year olds like they're just barely worth their time can often get anything from sex to unpaid overtime if they sell it well and are indiscriminately fishing.
Most people grow out of it, but some don't. Then there's also that the pool isn't a representative sample of the population. The mature and discriminate are easy to miss (they filter heavily), more likely to leave low investment pools like tinder because the effort/value proposition is bad, and when they leave because of relationships will take longer to return to the pool. It's not that all the good ones are taken, its that most of the bad ones are looking.
Alright alright alright
