But I don't go around telling people they're wrong for liking it

Neither do I. Actually, if you read my comment, you'll see that I said that "I want [fast travel/easier difficulties] to be an option, not the default. I don't want to take anything away from you if you personally enjoy the hardcore, no fast travel, fight the same enemies a hundred times approach. I would personally like to be able to move on so I can see what happens next in the story."

or making up some insane statistic like "99% of players hated it".

It's not insane to say that a majority of people who played the game were not fond of the travel times, hence the widespread demand for fast travel. I was being hyperbolic for dramatic effect when I said "literally 99% hated it."
