Because Zone2 will bring you better VO2max and thus longevity. zone3/4 just bring stressor to your body.

are there any proof to that? highest VO2 athletes are cross country skiers, rowers cyclists.. they spend hours in zone 3-4 each day.

I was talking of HR zones to increase VO2 and pointed out that ppl with highest VO2 might not spend significant amount of time in Zone 3-4 and Zone 2 is more a comfortable way to get an OK number of VO2. Yes, elit athletes die early, but probably not due to high VO2 Max..

sorry did you realize that this channel is called "longevity"?
No offence, but I don't give a shit what athletes do besides the fact that their quality of life is very bad and much shorter than non-athletes who simply do fitness.

on the highest VO2 max athletes you can find some materials here: https://www.topendsports.com/testing/records/vo2max.htm

the other part is "anecdata" and personal experience. If you are sitting on an Erg or pumping a Ski Erg for 1-2h as an athlete you will not spend 80% of your time below 140-150 bpm

Source? 
Spending “hours” in zone 3/4 means nothing if they spend 80% of their training time in Zone2. You obviously need zone3/4/5 training, but it’s just a small part of the total volume.
