My guess is that they just don't know enough about the subject matter to realize what's extreme or not.
Heh, yeah, I think you haven't seen enough translated stuff if you don't see it commercially. Amazon marks all BL manga and novels yaoi (right in the title, like: "Little Butterfly Volume 1 (Yaoi)," so you can't possibly miss it) and DMP has either "Yaoi novel" or "Yaoi manga" on a big bar on all their books.
