Same reason we like CRT shit or VHS now. Half of us wasn't raised with it and the low fidelity that comes with either is something new compared to an era of lossless HD animation while the other half of us was raised with it and are nostalgic for it. You also find that colours are more muted and the outlines blend into the scene more with drawn cel animation, and due to it being labour intensive the way cell animation is directed scene to scene is different from digital. It's subtle, but it's enough for some autists to latch onto and fixate on as a preference. If I recall correctly there is a scene right now collecting old DVDs and VHS copies of cartoons as new studio re-releases are starting to "upscale" old cartoon seasons instead of the original cel look now.
