I thought the same thing until I upgraded my Kickr and Kickr Climb setup to a Kickr Bike, which costs as much as my best real bike and more than a Peloton (I won't be getting N+1 for a while, that's for sure).
Having something that Just Works when you want to exercise indoors without faffing with the setup (if you want to also ride outside or share the trainer with other household members) is compelling. I'm not interested in the Peloton's closed ecosystem, but there are definitely a lot of people who don't mind the available classes they get.
