I believe, and someone here can likely correct me if I'm wrong, that Plant Sims first became a 'thing' in Sims2. It has everything to do with being too heavy into gardening. Also, your children aren't born, they are harvested from the ground! I've never been into them, myself, but my grown daughter could never get enough of them. To each, his own.

Yeah, but that was The Sims 2 (and to an extent 3.) Plant sims in ts4 aren’t even a real lifestate, just a temporary moodlet that changes some needs and such. They’re basically useless and I resent the addition of those emotions beans to the expensive seed packs since they nerfed grafting (just my opinion though.)

Grafting option is still in the game. Back in that spring, the Plantsim Challenge was getting the emotion beans from the plantsims that were walking on the street. As no plantsims will ever walk on the streets again, the emotion beans can be obtained from rare seed packages.
If the player doesn't like plantsims, they can use these beans on that magic stump, grow the portal tree, go in and get the forbitten fruit. This allows players to complete the gardening collection without using cheats. The forbitten fruit cannot be grafted.

It’s still in the game, but there’s basically no chance of actually getting the rare plants from it.
