We live in a competitive world where organisms (including companies) need to take advantage of every edge they can to out-compete their peers. If they don't, they risk getting left behind or being devoured by their competitors.

Taking advantage of near zero interest cash to grow like crazy is one of those. If you don't, your competitors will. Kind of a game theory situation.

Sometimes, things don't work out for individual organisms. But in aggregate, the ones that through luck and/or foresight manage to make the in hindsight correct decisions emerge as winners.
