To add to the other responses, I think there's maybe a sense of relief or novelty in it, as the rest of many of these games are intense and/or violent. Having a little wholesome moment in the midst of all that really stands out.
Ever tried to get a visa? It takes a lot of time and money, and people in these situations have neither.
I've never heard of any international law that states as such. A quick search listed the agreements between the US and Canada, as well as the Dublin III agreement in the EU, both of which have exceptions for family members, but neither of these are all-encompassing international laws or would prohibit what's being described here.

Thousands of moderators overseeing the site’s subreddits are on strike. It’s a wrinkle in Reddit’s plan to go public, and a sign that plan is premature, columnist Anita Ramaswamy writes.
The funny thing is, Reddit might have had a chance to become profitable. If spez implemented a reasonable pricing scheme for the API (even charging two or three times what they'd expect to make from a user using the first party app--magnitudes lower than the proposed pricing), and if they made a few other adjustments, it might be profitable. They already had the advantage of not having to pay for moderation, which was huge.

Ironically, if Reddit were to adopt a reasonable pricing scheme for the API, the more reputable AI companies would probably just pay it instead of switching to web scraping, and Reddit could actually make something from it.
I've been a software developer in corporate America long enough to have some guesses as to why they really want everyone using the first-party app.

Good. It means the quality of content on Reddit will continue to tank, and it'll hit the potential investors in the only place they can feel anything--their wallets (assuming it ends up public at all).
It's a shame that Reddit is becoming a lost cause, but it's not the place the internet came to love for all those years. It's better to be put out of its misery.
