I'm not sure this is only true of LLMs - most corporate sites are very similar. Professional designers learn very quickly not to be too quirky or unique.
I think this is symptomatic of humans - our comfort zone is the "7 out of 10" morass of similarity and blandness. We are herd animals. LLMs are just reflecting this.
