I've heard similar arguments before regarding electric vs. acoustic guitars; they aren't any more valid in that case than they are in analogue vs. digital synths.
Analogue synths create and reproduce sounds in a way that digital ones simply can't and vice-versa. I'm fine with both, but dismissing one or the other simply because of how they generate those sounds is exactly that: dismissive.
Preferring one to the other is fine - but opinion doesn't make for an absolute judgement on the matter.
