Really you don't need to be so black and white. I don't think anyone has said UAD is way better than everything else, but they are very definitely top tier.A "better" sounding mix is not restricted to UAD plugins. You can have an excellent mix using stock plugins, or other brands - like softube, fabfilter, waves, etc. This idea that UAD is way above other brands is just snake oil.the one with the better sounding mix will be preferred by almost everyone.
You're in a thread about UAD plug ins with many UAD users, most of whom are very happy with their UAD plug ins.
I have plug ins from a bunch of different companies that are not UAD, so feel I have a fairly good perspective on where UAD sit. For me, for plug ins where sonics are important, UAD are the standard for other plug ins to match.
I probably wouldn't have recommended UAD to beginners a few years ago. The dsp cards are/were a big investment. But their ridiculously priced recent bundles now they have gone native are exceptionally good value.
