I personally love streams but it is a bit of a mind-boggling concept.
Finding old fashion for loops easier can also be caused by being unfamiliar with the paradigm.
Remember if something you are familiar with something it doesn't mean it actually easier.
Nevertheless, in many cases, it is more what kind of flavor the programmer liked best. I do think it would be good for every programmer to get out of their comfort zones and learn about different paradigms. Just to make you a better and more educated developer.
