I'm more interested in the rationale given about being offended by underwear (aka 'unmentionables'). American puritanism is so pure that someone will find a way to weaponize it

From personal experience it almost assuredly has nothing to do with feeling offended by underwear itself.

The complaining party simply thinks (correctly) that they will get more traction from their neighbors/public/city council/HoA if they wail about that vs. general clothes line drying they find distasteful.

I have nothing good to say about people like this, other than to say they are a large and growing segment of the US population.
