If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.

That's because vanilla sex isn't as stimulating. The more superstimulating something is, the more experiencing it causes you to want more of it.

vanilla sex isn't as stimulating

For people who are into one or another variety of kink, or would be if only they knew about it / were prepared to try it. I don't think it's obvious that that's everyone.

That doesn't seem to be the case, see e.g. yummy food. I think you're confusing "stimulating" and "addictive".

That "explanation" is easily falsified. There are plenty of people who tried kinkier sex, enjoyed it, but reverted back to vanilla. There are plenty of people who tried roller-coasters once or twice but decided it's too much "stimulation".
