These appear to be sociology topics more so than computer science. HCI started as a field for how humans directly interact with machines (ex. new pointing devices). I guess scope has creeped substantially since then.

It's been a while since I've followed CHI, but didn't it used to be a slightly more technical conference? The second paper in particular ("It Didn’t Feel Right but I Needed a Job so Desperately’: Understanding People’s Emotions and Help Needs During Scams") seems like something that might be more appropriate for a sociology or applied psych journal.
Has it become more of a social-sciences adjacent tech research conference these days? (I'm not being critical, just curious.)

CHI has been a pretty big tent (and it's gotten to be a big conference) from the beginning and has always had a strong social/psych contingent. I believe the author is from such a background, so "papers I wish I wrote" is going to be skewed towards those kinds of contributions.
But there have been and still are plenty of what I would technical papers; just skimming the program there were sessions on pose/gesture tracking, haptics, VR, and of course zillions of AI things.

So many papers from conferences like these fascinate me. Of course you get those who are clearly doing research that was easier to get funding for but then you get questions like these where people obviously have some interesting viewpoints on the world.
Computing within limits is another conference that I'm often reading all the papers for whilst being in awe.
