Why does everyone skip soaking beans overnight and then complain about gas?

I swear half the posts here are like 'I cooked pinto beans for 3 hours and my stomach hated me'. The fix is literally free, just soak them like 8 hours before you start. I did a side by side last Tuesday in my own kitchen, same bag of beans, one soaked one not. The soaked batch cooked in 45 minutes flat and nobody got the toots. The unsoaked ones took 90 minutes and my roommate still brings up the aftermath. Has anyone else tried the quick soak method where you boil for 2 minutes then rest for an hour? That works too but I stick with the overnight route now.
