Anyone know why this buns got Thanos snapped? I get that their content was a bit of an aquired taste but they didnt seem too too bad to me. Certainly not enough to warrant getting locked behind cheats

The Lapinara encounter on Tarkus has been disabled, their codex updated, and most mentions of them by NPCs in and around Tarkus eliminated. Why? The team felt Lapinara were one of the weakest encounters on the planet and didn’t exactly mesh well with the rest. Additionally, their scenes tended toward brevity quite a bit more than is expected in the game nowadays. This change will enable us to use them in the wider context of the universe in the future and hopefully do more with them.

The Black Void engineer you meet in KQ2 is half-lapinara (and half-ausar; per word of Savin, she's one of Amara's kids). I think she still unlocks the lapinara Codex entry when you meet her.
Oh nice! So they weren't totally nuked from the game.
