For the most part I totally agree. Then there are some days like today where every raid I do seems to go south.
But in all honesty that's usually on me when that happens, time to take a break or try different attacks at that point.

I eventually upgraded to TH9 and my experience didn't change much. Still basically 90% TH snipes. I did most of my elixir building upgrades using just loot from collectors. Upgraded AQ up to level 4 using DE from drills (didn't attack at all for a month or so).
Now I'm on low gold leagues to farm elixir for lab upgrades and getting full attacked way more often here.
I don't have problems with loot, I'm currently batching in masters 2. The bonus takes such good care of me :P
I don't experience many th9 complaining about loot...not sure where you are finding these guys. The only th9s that I have seen complaining about loot were either in the wrong trophy range and not willing to find the right one or they were rushed and still haven't learned the arts of Barch and gibarch with boost sessions.
It goes off topic but personally I see no point adding inferno tower other than enjoy maxing.
nobody full raid me more than once per week so adding IT is not any impact.
Still I think the only motivation for those upgrading defenses in th10 is maxing base and trophy push not defending loot.
your loot is safe with th9 defenses.
i dont like max th10 defense and trophy push (off course I wish to be no1 global but i cannot do it and i dont have any interest to reach for example 4800 cups) . I just like wars and enjoy farming, practice attacking.
Thanks to the OP!!!
This thread makes so much sense for my scenario right now. When I just turned TH9, i thought about quitting this game...thats how tough farming was. But then I struggled and got lvl 6 giants...now i am enjoying farming xD
