Like lots of ill-advised trends, it's lazy and disrespectful. But nobody seems to care much about that anymore. Pretty much anything goes.
I had a prof in college that wore his jammies while giving lectures. In his case I think it was more of a case that he was off-the-charts brilliant and simply never considered the social aspects. I think he just rolled out of bed and headed off to the lecture hall without giving a thought about it.

My wife gets upset when I wear my night clothes to move the car in the morning. Those night clothes are boxer shorts which could easily double as a bathing suit and a printed tee shirt.

On vacation recently I saw a teen/young twentysomething who'd come downstairs to get his hotel breakfast... in bare feet. Wildly unsanitary, which is part of my objection to the pajamas-in-public. Whether or not people are going from class/the mall and falling straight into bed or not, that's the stylistic implication.

When I lived in Taiwan decades ago, I saw older men wearing pajamas out of doors, not far from home but just outside the house, like to get the paper in the morning or hang out and have a smoke. It was weird.

When I was a kid, a recurring nightmare was to find myself at school in my pajamas. Or naked. Yikes!

I wish we could just get away from clothes altogether, and maybe we'd all be less uptight in general. Fewer wars, lawsuits, etc.

Guess you'd have to ask them. Perhaps pjs are more comfy?

Why care about whether people are nude in public?

Quite frankly, so many people are so grotesque dressed up that a bunch of naked people might provide some welcomed aesthetic diversion.
