NFTs etc weren't really a thing before taproot IIRC.
And once taproot merged it only makes sense to use taproot.
I think there were images in bitcoin all the way back in 2010 already.

True, but I believe taproot enabled larger images to be stored on the chain and at a cheaper cost, which is why we saw ordinals and the likes take off
Segwit really did that rather than taproot
Totally agree! Taproot really opened up new possibilities for Bitcoin. It's wild to think about how far we've come since 2010. Excited to see where it all goes next! 🚀🎉
