It's Zhongli and Scara where Childe's purpose in ships is to be about how good and sympathetic the other character is because we see all their tragedies and feel for them, but we don't see anything like that for Childe in canon. That's why he can be treated like this.
We don't see much of Childe being sad because his facade is precisely not showing sadness for the past. There are scenes here and there but those people don't care so they just make him into a sexual partner to their fav. Childe stans have been talking about it for a long time now but shippers love their ooc fics and fanart and that sadly won't change no matter what hoyo makes of the game. That's how fandoms works
