Some prefer not to be tied to a laptop or monitor as it reminds them too much of work. Even DAWs look like spreadsheets these days. IF ( caps intentional) the hardware is close to a one for one control scheme it CAN be more immediately satisfying. The case for hardware in terms of practicality and sonics is very hard to make.I personally enjoy modular synthesis and appreciate its limitations but I like working with my hands and the endless tinkering it invites but that is a luxury of time and money that is not available to some. For more practical people with more immediate needs I don’t imagine it to be appealing.

Honestly, I don't understand why all this stuff isn't completely obvious to anyone with even half a brain. It's OK to love your hardware, I love mine, but that doesn't actually make it objectively better in any way - it doesn't sound better and it sure as hell requires a lot more patience and dedication.
Big +1 to this.

I tried last year to get back in to hardware synths. And by that I mean I really tried - I bought three and spent a lot of time working on DAW audio and MIDI routings for them. And as much as I tried it just reinforced how much I am spoiled in my workflow with softsynths - I just like working with them so much better. The relative convenience is just so much greater IMO.

This is really a personal and subjective thing and tied a lot to how one likes to work.
