This is the false dichotomy.
Being able to apply slight styling to text is better than wrapping words in asterisks or underlines. Adding reactions and emojis is better than using punctuation to simulate it.
It's really common to confuse "what I'm used to" with "what's better" and I think that's especially happening here.
