Serious question, why do folks like SS over Aluminum? Is it aesthetic? Weight? Something else?
Aesthetics are better for SS body:

SS is stronger than Aluminium and does not scratch as easily.

The Aluminium models have glass, SS models have Sapphire Crystal display. Both looks and durability improve for SS.

You can just to go to an Apple strore and hold it to feel the difference.

People commenting don't know that this watch new is almost double price the aluminum version. It's also stronger. 7
And 8 mostly the same just 9 is brighter. I turned off always on screen and my battery lasts two full days with this. The only problem this is old Amazon stock and the battery burned out from being on the shelf so long had to send it to Apple for warranty replacement. But it's amazing if you don't need the 9 brighter screen

Different glass is the only important difference IMO. It is harder to scratch unlike glass on aluminum watch, that will look worn after a year

As others have pointed out, Apple doesn't do a great job labeling it but the big appeal is the sapphire crystal display. Way stronger than glass and far more scratch resistant

But then, if looking at buying this one, why not buy the titanium body model?

Which is yet another thing that Apple doesn't explicitly advertise, but is even better

I believe titanium has more of a brushed finish, so that part depends a bit more on your aesthetics IMO.

In terms of the link you provided though, that's a renewed/refurbished watch which I personally was trying to avoid. If you're ok with refurbished, then there are actually cheaper options for stainless steel as well.

better durability (harder) and sapphire compared to the normal glass alongside the premium feel and weight of it (heavier)

For me it's that the screen doesn't end up with scratches all over it. I like the aesthetics of it as well. Cell radio is included. The last two I got were aluminum and they were scratched to hell after a couple years. I scored the stainless 9 with the Amazon price mistake for the same price as the aluminum and now I get it.

I would agree, but the past few iterations are virtually identical.
