Depends on how they were trained, if they aren't actively used to lots of human touch early on the default mode for cats is "pets on my schedule, if I feel like it".

I don't... think it's bad? Such cats aren't unhappy or evil, they just don't crave affection which kinda makes sense for a barely domesticated species whose wild counterpart is non-social. Raising a cat to be cuddly definitely goes against its innate instincts.
