Nobody would argue that recent history supports your argument that tech stocks have been a better investment. People who invest in PM often do so out of concern that the sh*t might hit the fan one day and all stocks become fugazi. I have a lot of $ in stocks and fear that it's just a number on a screen. My retirement is based on numbers on screens. If all goes well, I'll have a great retirement. But there are scenarios where $2M in Google stock disappears.
Plus it's nice to pick up a heavy bar of gold or walk around with a couple silver eagles in your pocket.
You also said before that you would be lucky to find anyone to buy your PM. Go to ebay and filter gold and silver coins by 'sold' and see what they are going for. Those that were able to get through on the US Mint website (lucky me!!) and bought 2021 Morgan Silver Eagles when they were released made 2-3X their investment in minutes.
