If I had to guess based on his area of research having a ton to do with artificial light, I'd guess that one reason is that synthetics tend to offer far more yield for the energy required.

I'd personally love to see such a video. I have a lot of internal conflicts with organic vs synthetic that I am trying to wrangle with so I'd love to hear some more expert opinion on the matter as it pertains to cannabis.

I know you mostly use a peat / vermiculite mix so not sure how close / far that is to hydroponics.

It's basically the opposite end of the growing spectrum.

yea, you're right. for some reason, I associate peat with soil and always forget that it's actually technically soilless media. probably because it is the base component for so many "soil" mixes.
