In the end, it's the output that matters. They're selling a product:
Not the effort that goes into the product.
If we're talking about purely artistic endeavors that are _not_ made
mostly for commercial purposes, I can see your point. But if I'm buying
a chair and I have two choices: One made in a factory and the other hand
built, and I can't distinguish between the two, why should I care how it
was made? I want the chair to be comfortable.

It doesn't sadden me at all. It'll only sadden me if the resulting
movie is of poorer quality (to save expenses), or if there are
techniques that can't be done on a computer and they're just not
bothering to do them live.
It's like people who are sad that film is on its way out and most
photography (including professional) is digital. I can understand them
_missing_ film, but it's not as if something good is being sacrificed
for something inferior.
