They assume it because they aren't smart enough to know the difference between attention seeking and eccentric behavior. Most people that would *incorrectly* assume it's attention seeking are probably attention seekers themselves, otherwise they wouldn't make that assumption.
It's called lack of theory of mind, for them.
