That's true in retail where they want you wandering the aisles but it doesn't translate well to digital store fronts because of the way they're organized.
In a retail shop you have broad categories like desserts or women's hygiene and a product has a 1:1 relationship with that category. People shop based on categories and can easily skip irrelevant ones (how often are you wandering the toilet paper aisle looking for cheese?).
Digital stores allow products to exist in multiple genre concurrently and are featured virtually based on popularity or advertising dollars. So it's entirely possible to see the same game in every genre because it's being spammed at you or contains poorly conceived elements from those genre.
Generally filtering by multiple genres results in full outer joins instead of inner joins so they're effectively useless.
