Why are ESEs often maligned? People frequently like to project their mommy issues on ESEs and mistype people who act like mothers and not as ESEs.

imo, I think it has mostly to do with the following,
Fe and Te are dominant types. So because of their rational and extroverted (or objective) attitude they have a big tendency to focus on ordering the outer world in some way, as well as defining themselves by it. Of course ESEs and LSEs run into different resistance when doing that and have different neurotic behaviors as a result. But it's their basic attitude of either effecting (a more Te thing) or affecting (a more Fe thing) people that sometimes causes other people to "push back" and can leave the LSE or ESE irritated to the point of neurotically attacking back with the suggestive function. This defensive "push back" that other people sometimes might have to take around these people can create a feeling of constant unease about such people, sometimes manifested as a hatred that bears only intolerance of them.
