"why does software require maintenance, it's not like it wears down"

Because software is not generally useful for any inherent good; what matters is its relationship with the surrounding context, and that context is in perpetual change.

I do really enjoy an exploration of a fantasy world but I wish there were any plot device for it other than following a protagonist who suddenly receives a magical power or artifact.

Why is it not possible for an author to tell an interesting story that involves finding a novel world that doesn't involve an individual who needs to save it and/or might end up as its king?
