It’s a really good question, I’m from Argentina and I don’t have a solid answer. Like someone else said the colonization and history is likely to be part of the reason, but I would like to remark that Argentina has a lot more influence from Italy, Spain, Germany and France, and also Jewish ( iirc Buenos Aires used to be the city with the largest jewish population after New York in the 90’s). It’s a very different cultural melting pot compared to any other country in South America.
