How did The Doctrine of Double Effect "wash out" of popular Trolley Problem discussion?

Just realized that most people don't realize that the Trolley problem is originally about Doctrine of Double Effect, intention & people making different decisions in similar scenarios, etc, etc, etc. 

How/why did this wash out of the discussion completely, to be replaced by a simple Will Ya Pull The Lever?

In philosophical discussions it has not washed out. What might have happened is that the trolley problem is easy to present in a three minute video, it lends itself to animations, is easily written up for a 500 word article, etc so the washed out version is what most people get access to.
