Whedon's 4:3 vs 16:9 AR

I do not understand why some prefer the original 4:3(1.33) AR SD over the 16:9(1.78) WS HD-720p/1080p.
I have watched the 4:3 SD in the highest quality media on an HD TV screen about eight years ago and now I just started a re-watch in HD-WS-720p; I much prefer this HD-WS version. It is not stretched or cropped, the quality is excellent and much better in my opinion to Whedon's 4:3 original intended ratio.
