Repeating something you already said is not discussion, it is just being rude and dismissive. Suppose there was a "water sale" with a completely random selection of games. Likely every game has some sort of depiction of or reference to water and it is completely objective yet some might expect a water themed sale to feature games with something more than a background puddle. Similarly, even with subjective themes it could be expected that someone would find particular games to distinctively fit the theme.
Unless I am misunderstanding what "kawaii" means, including NSFW titles does have a distinctly objectifying feel to it.
IIRC from previous discussion the reason sales never follow the theme much is that they are largely self selected by publishers who mostly pick when they want games to be on sale. A "no NSFW titles" restriction for certain particular themes would be nice.
Checking Kanshudo I see: "で particle 1. indicates location of action; at; in 2. ...", so presumably it is intended to mean the digital equivalent of "you are the cutest in the store". Does it not actually sound like that in Japanese?
