You do not actually prefer HDD, and nothing bodes badly for overclockers or laptops. You are just looking for ways to be contrarian.
on a heat note: a spinning rustdisk also uses quite a bit of watt, every time, all the time. Powerwise the high W ssd's are still less power hungry over time.
Regardless, some people drive an old, dangerous, slow, gas-guzzling car - and maintain it at great expense - just because they prefer it. Aesthetic and sentimental appeal is highly personal and knows no bounds.
Really they're good for bulk storage. And that's it. For use in primary compute they're really great if you want to slow everything down.
And running any electronic component hot is just asking for trouble.
Depends on the price point.
Just days ago PM1725 gave us trouble. Yet, five WD10JUCT I bought recently (in R5) beat it on the price and available capacity, even with abysmal performance.

I'd say running too hot.
With no revelry whatsoever my 2006 early SATA Maxtor 100GB HDD is still going strong with Windows 11 on a Dell Vista PC.
Boots no slower than our IT guys have 2-year-old SSD W10 PC's doing at the office.
You seem to have studied it quite well, or perhaps find that ad-hominems make for the best arguments!
