When I see a teammate getting stomped but they refuse to build any defense I try to understand them

"Ok the enemy is mostly ability power, maybe I should get item 3156 / item 3102 so I get damage and defense against their burst... naw that's stupid let's make sure to avoid MR like the plague."

"Huh the enemy's damage and their most fed members are on-hit AD, maybe some item 3047 item 3157 / item 3026 would be a good plan... nah I can totally tank that item 3147 Khazix We building item 3006 item 3020 item 3117 boys!"

I watch with these things in mind and... and I still don't get it, neither of these click to make any semblance of sense.

Defensive items on the wrong champions just makes them useless. The correct answer is lane swaps or better positioning.

Has anyone actually say down and analyzed whether building or damage or defensive is better in the current meta? It is so snowbally right now that building defensive in a losing game is akin to accepting the status quo and letting the other team continue to take more objectives.
