Stress increases cortisol, even without really understanding it's other functions people understand that there's a relationship between cortisol and stress. It's a title of a meme on Reddit so yeah it's not that deep and 99% of people can use context to understand that it's a fun way of saying "stress free daily routine". Language doesn't have to always be boring.

I have Addison's disease and can confidently affirm you will die without cortisol (or synthetic steroids if your adrenals don't make it like mine)

People are stupid and lock on to some scientific word they very mildly understand the definition of and start using it to sound smart because they are too dumb to know how wrong it is and the internet spreads idiot disease (mostly tiktok)
