Of course they made the trivial mistake, because they also made a much, much bigger one. The X trademark as it pertains to social media is owned by Meta, who bought it from Microsoft when they acquired Mixer (which later became Facebook Gaming), including Mixer’s X logo.
Have you considered that they probably feel the same way about you? That you’re disregarding what they say and pushing back with your own outlook?
So the answer to your other question is “Yes!” The Statue of Liberty is also green because it’s made of copper. It was metallic when it was first installed in 1886, but had turned fully green within 20 years.

A company of Reddit’s size might make hundreds of millions in ad revenue, but they also have hundreds of millions in costs. For example, spez said recently they have ~2000 employees. If we make a conservative estimate that the average salary is $50k, that’s $100 Million a year just in payroll (and given that they’re based in San Francisco, it’s definitely higher than that). And if you consider all the computers, servers, electricity and other utilities, marketing, etc, etc, it adds up quick.
I don’t think anybody worries about those things happening with long dresses, which are already plenty common and have similar risk.
