Are people on CE really that opposed to letting their cats go outside?

We had 3 cats at one point, lived their whole lives indoors from kittens to almost 2 years old. One day one of the cats snuck outside, was gone for like a day, came back, and went outside everyday afterwards until the point he was basically an outside only cat. We followed suit with our other 2 and there was no issue.

They came back once or twice a day to eat or drink from the bowls we kept outside and to get petted and hangout with us on the back patio. They all died of old age.

Theyre animals, their instincts will enable them to survive. Unless you live somewhere with shitty weather I dont see the big deal.
