I am also very pro subscription feed (and still don’t get why people are angry that shorts made by the people they subscribe to are on that page…).

But it mostly speaks to the mindset in a similar way to “tags versus folders” for document organization and so forth.

I go to youtube to largely watch content by creators I like. So for me, the subscription feed is generally how I do that. For others, they go to look for topics they like and benefit from the front page showing them someone else who is playing Remnant 2 or whatever.
