You can send analog or digital signals through it and, depending on the design and construction it will do either, well or poorly.As for your damnation of HDMI, it is not entirely warranted.
Point 1: You do not necessarily get audio on it (if it is sent by a receiver that is doing the audio processing) but there's no harm if it is there.
Point 2: True but there are solutions to reinforce the connection. I use latching HDMI connectors.
Point 3: Only old and cheezy AVRs are that way. Anything bought in the past 5-6 years will do better unless it was bought in a pawn shop.
Point 4: Yes, it is better to have more choices but you have to pay for them.
Point 5: These days, the signals are all digital (except for LPs). So, keeping them digital as long as possible up to the point making sound (at the speaker) or picture (at the display), the better the outcome. Analog connections/processing encumber noise and distortion.
