It is like a mini ecosystem. Just like how a jungle is different than a sea. Level of sweat, ingredients in sweat, rival bacteria etc.

To me it’s more like the jungle is different than the woodland.

Rival bacteria is precisely the point. Clearly a specific bacteria can come to dominate an armpit that never has a chance elsewhere.

I want to know why. What makes the armpit better suited than the crotch for that particular BO smell.

Well armpits constantly sweat providing higher moisture. While crotch does not always sweat constantly.
