I reckon someone just figured out that humans, over time, become increasingly defiant but remain steadily greedy.

"OBEY or bad things!"
- "Oh no, help! I will obey!"

"Continue to obey, or bad things!"
- "Nah, bored, come at me bro."

"Err... if you obey you get infinite sweets in heaven, really awesome ones."
- "...they free?"

"Yeah infinite! Free sweeties! You have to OBEY for now though."
- "Free... free sweets, you say? OK I'm back in."
