It's not implicit or unfounded. The parent comment is explicitly saying that's what they prefer. And, as an actual human, their preference is intrinsically valid for them.

If I like my kid's crappy cooking over a Michelin-star meal made by a robot... then I get to like my kid's crappy cooking more. I have that right. There is no social consensus when it comes to what I want. You can't argue whether my preference is correct or not, it's my preference.

As a software developer and human being, I know people often say they prefer one thing while actually preferring something else. That's human nature.

People have strong feelings about AI in general and that can definitely cloud what they will say about it.
