Greek and Roman woman wore primitive bands during athletics. It wasn’t about modesty, it was about support and not having your tits bounce around. It was a tool. Ditto for guys and briefs, but tits can weigh a hell of a lot more.
Modesty is part of contemporary usage, but it ain’t all about modesty. Undergarments are functional tools as well. Humans make all sorts of tools to make their bodies get around more efficiently.
I have massive tits and I am physically active. I also have a physically demanding job. I think people (mostly men but also women with smaller breasts) don’t realize how much they just straight up get in the way!
And I’m nearing 40. And have had a child! They get pendulous real quick and I have a feeling by the time I retire I’ll be able to tuck them into my waistband! I am a liberated woman! I come from hippies! I even went a couple years completely without a bra! Strapping these fuckers out of the way has nothing to do with a fear they are sinful or might be seen and everything to do with not having the time to bat them out of the way every thirty seconds.
I also hate the pivot from “we need better boob operator equipment” to “Well akshyually if you didn’t wear bras at all it wouldn’t be a problem.” Okay fucko you think you have all the answers about why breasts are saggy, how about addressing the problem?
Yeah I’m a man but I have a wife and quite a few friends with medium to large chest extensions and I do not envy them - the inconvenience looks like a right pain in the hole. I find running for a bus bad enough in the morning without having to worry about things getting out of control up there. Unless you’re planning on being stationary a lot (basically not doing day to day activities) you’re going to need support for those things.
My wife keeps trying to arrange a free bra fitting at M&S but it seems like that’s a high demand service…

I appreciate this distinction.

She can try measuring herself first using this calculator, then she can try a couple of different styles to see which ones fit her better.
