Why would people bother upgrading when phones are all exactly the same? The only distinct, interesting phones today are foldables, which are enormously expensive. If you aren't shelling out $1500 or whatever for those, then what are you getting with a phone upgrade?
Also, the availability of cheap, sturdy cases and high quality glass means phones last longer. So basically most people are at the point where they use a phone until it doesn't work any more, and that takes longer than it used to.

I used to get mocked mercilessly for sticking with a Caravan flip-phone for so long; and now look where you are, dinguses.
