No, not just opinion at all. Your experience is simply the coincidence
of the heat output of your slow cooker happening to be enough to
maintain the 140 you desire.

Now try your slow cooker at filets desired rare or medium rare, say 125
deg F. You would fail every time.

The advantage of sous vide cooking is its precisely variable temperature
control.

Sometimes just being a dinosaur doesn't make you right -- it just makes
you pig-headed. And I'm older than you are, and have been cooking longer.

I have a sous vide machine that doubles as a slow cooker, but of course I
can choose the temps.

I haven't heard of a slow cooker that can do that yet.

Mine is like this:
