Why colleges that do superscore also want all your sat scores?

A few reasons.
• Some applicants are blessed with the ability to pay for multiple testings and SAT prep while others are not; sending all scores helps the university put the score into context.
• Some applicants will overly obsess over scores and will retake a 2350 and perhaps that particular university is not looking for test taking drones this year.

If I did incredibly bad at my first sitting and got a decent score on my last one, would this affect my application negatively?

From 2 sittings, no.

Also should I send all sat 2s if that college’s score policy is send all scores?

If the university specifically says “all scores” without qualifiers, then yes. Many univeristies will require all SAT scores, but allow score choice on subject tests, so check each website and contact admissions directly if there is any doubt.
