It's become a mark of LLM-generated text because of its common use in more professional typesetting situations - such as the large amounts of texts used to train LLMs - while being uncommon in everyday use due to less accessible on keyboards.
Most word processing apps and mobile keyboards I've used in the last 20 years do a lot of that shit automatically. Like adding another space after a period, turning "--" into "—" and adding a page break after a single press of return.
People (on Linux & MacOS) are fucking lazy. I've been using topographically correct quotes, apostrophes and dashes since forever. It takes a minute to learn which key + Opt/AltGr does em/en dashes.
Of course you're right about Windows, which for some inexplicable reason ships with braindead useless keyboard layouts. I don't blame its users for not seeking out better keyboard layouts, that's much more involved than finding the right key combination.
