For about the same reason modern art is crap: modern "stylism"(or whatever you want to call it) rejects any form of beauty in favor of obnoxious crap. Most anime rely on their audience buying overpriced discs, figures and other merch, so it's forced to remain visually appealing.

Though it's worth noting that not all genres of anime attempt the cute, "moe" aesthetic. It can get a lot more morose in theme and tone. Take for example, this series about a group of hideous human-animal hybrid abominations.
