A very common theory given the circumstances, it may be as simple as them all having abandonment PTSD or simply being neurodivergent as suggested by one WMG above, but with the Air Cons mental breakdown, Kirby's panic attack at the waterfall (and the Toaster 'taking him for a walk' to get him 'untangled') frequent themes of isolation (Air Con, the flower) and suicide (again the flower, the lyrics "You might as well just hang around," and the whole of ''Worthless'') and the cutting edge appliances considering them out of date, all make sense strung together in a film otherwise devoid of a more complex theme. It thus makes sense why Ron would care for his appliances - they, like all people regardless of mental function, possess [[NumberOneDime inherent value]] not related to their usefulness. Along with that there's the fear of being left behind made very evident at the start, taken advantage of by predatory figures such as St. Peters and the latter running what to appliances seems to be an ''obvious'' pastiche of a [[BedlamHouse historically accurate]] psychiatric ward where they [[ThrownDownAWell cannot leave]] since they're 'out of their minds' which historically meant being put somewhere out of sight for the sake of everyone else's peace of mind, and the frank disdain that the up-to-date appliances have for them (shared by the Magnet given it's expression as it puts junk cars out of their misery) congruent with a depressingly common view on the mentally ill as being a burden at best.
