Why is 4/4 so common?

Why is so much of the music we listen to in the time signature 4/4? Is 4/4 innately pleasing to human ears or is a love of 4/4 something that is learnt? I've wondered this for a long time so I finally took to Reddit in search of answers. Thank you to everybody who contributed on Reddit towards this!
