Why is creep block even a thing?

Serious question.

Why does creep block exist? Why not just make everyone capable of walking through minions? The old phantom dancer existed, so we know the code is there and that it is possible.

Creep block and pathing have been EXTREMELY problematic ever since the preseason started and it still has not been fixed. The other day I was playing jungle and got blocked when I went to gank, had to flash the minions.

Seriously, I cannot see one possible good reason as to why this even exists.

Before anyone says "to prevent denying creeps", you can command it to only attack creeps ignoring a champion on top of it and CS just fine.

Your own creeps shouldn't by able to block you.

Enemy creeps should.

so people don't basically stand on farm and block cs in early phase. which still happens even with minion block so i don't get it.
