It's the Audio, How they mixed it in the Studio
Not to sound argumentative but it most certainly is not. I've heard the song many times and I purposely listened to it again after reading your post. No producer who is making records for hit-making artist in 2021 would release a poorly mixed single. And if they somehow managed to do so, they'd never work again!
Billie's brother and collaborator Finneas, who created the instrumentation for most if not all of her songs, has said he wanted to recreate the sound of the speakers vibrating on the shelves in his sister's room when she was playing music. So yes, the bass is distorted. It's a deliberate effect created as part of the production, and it's a distinctive element of her musical style.
I heard her perform on The Grammys and she didn't sound so bad to me. Which is a first. To me, most of her songs were depressing and unlistenable.
She always seems happy and she's always smiling when she's not singing.
