Why are headset mics so bad?

Solved by Spuriae,
Rtings measures headset microphone frequency responses and has voice samples of each. https://www.rtings.com/headphones/tools/table/88100. The MH751 microphone is particularly good.
The characteristically congested sound of headsets largely comes down to the aggressive low pass effect most of them use. It can be good for intelligibility, especially in settings with high background noise, but isn't subjectively pleasing.
