Because some medical experts deem it a valid and valued preventative remedy for severe phimosis. While I don’t concur, my grandfather developed a case late in life that necessitated surgical remediation.
Strange that in other parts of the world that’s not the case. Almost as if American medical experts are swayed by their cultural bias.

My doctor concurs as do I.
Is he your doctor?
My own pediatrician as a child was a combat physician in Vietnam and he apparently told my parents that there is no question as to whether it should be done, having seen what he’s seen in the jungle.
This whole “just keep it clean” assumes daily access to fresh water and soap, and that’s just not guaranteed.
Our family physician was in agreement more recently when I had kids. I am a pretty skeptical person especially when it comes to religion, and the decision was obvious. A lifetime of cleanliness in the most sensitive area of the body is an easy decision.
