I'm not downplaying HIIT and I am doing weight training. I'm just stating that nothing is so black and white in the fitness/health game.
Low intensity cardio will still burn calories. HIIT just does it more efficiently and isn't quite as boring. Most people find long cardio sessions extremely boring.

HIIT is hard at first, but a lot of fun once you get into it.

Not everyone has the patience you have.
