>>42650115directly said that it acted as a counter to pokemon which others would normally get assblasted by and even noted that it is also used in lower usage % metagames that have formed around their own meta. Hidden power was fine but a flawed fix before the physical special split and movepool upgrades to old pokemon. In its current state last generation it was the most min max form in competetive play where there are always top dogs for each tier. Anons are not dumb but you do not want to understand what you have been told. Hidden power may be predictable and that is a part of the issue that lead it to become what it is known as now.
