Default First Solo and Total Hours Flown

I don't understand why there are so many negative comments discouraging
high time solo students.


Well, be sure first that you are correctly interpreting the "negative
comments". For example, the post you replied to did not actually include
any such "negative comments discouraging high time solo students" (I would
say "high time pre-solo students", but I think I get your meaning).

There's a different between asserting that some people may not be suited to
being a pilot, and asserting that one can determine whether a person is
suited to being a pilot by considering their time to solo. The former is
what the post to which you replied said.

Others have indeed said the latter, but those people appear to me to be in
the minority. I didn't actually count, and it may be I'm just less
sensitive to the question, but I don't get any sort of general wash of
opinion that ought to discourage high time pre-solo students.
