But that was specifically using time to 'farm' for that one item, right? Anybody would have a lot of anything if they spent time on mostly one location; that's an adaptation that many players aren't willing to do, you have to either keep making or buying the mechanical hearts. And a lot of them.

All that's saying is that there's good and bad things to leveling up. It's not saying leveling up is completely negative, hence there wouldn't be any positives. But your argument is like saying that because I prepared for something ahead of time,  that means that it has no negatives. Not everyone prepares for that, and sleeping usually never fully restores energy past level 50. You're also assuming people wait the full 24 hours to play, which is not the case. Also, I can use 1000 energy in like 30 minutes...

A similar argument already came up on the Energy page about the snowmen; because I have usually 60 collections  to make at any given time, I never have trouble keeping my energy up, but in general, most people don't and do not try for that. It requires more effort to keep the energy up nonetheless.
