Didn't we vote on the content and already knew what was going to be in the pack?

Kinda but not really. I'm pretty sure we voted for Arts and Crafts. But then that was whittled down so much we were left with just knitting.

We voted specificially for knitting though.... We voted Arts and Crafts as the main title and then when it had the list of 5 ideas for each category and it said "If this pack wins which subtheme should the pack be based on" we voted knitting. Arts and Crafts one, and the knitting category within it won.

People voted for the Arts and Crafts thinking it'd be a broader theme. Then when we were told how narrowed down it'd be, we had to "pick our poison". Basically, none of the options we were given at the end were what we were told to expect in the beginning. We voted for the option that would "suck" the least

That’s not how it happened. Rewind to my last post in this thread, looks like you didn’t read it back then or now.

Dec 2019 - "In today’s Maxis Monthly live stream, The Sims team gave a first look at the upcoming “Arts and Crafts” design styles players will be voting on starting December 23rd. During the upcoming community vote players can choose from “Granny Sleek”, “Cozy Craft Workshop” and “Do-it-Yourself (DYI) Delight”. Check out a first look at these styles below!"

The first thing I voted for was the arts and crafts. THEN they downgraded it even more to these three options. And even THEN they cut it down to just knitting. From the get-go, they were NOT clear that it would just be a SINGLE theme. They made it seem like it was going to be more than it was

Knitting had already been decided on before the design style vote you’re referring to. Here’s a blog post EA made summarizing the results of round 1. https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/sp-survey-results
The writing was already on the wall.
