I don't think any of us sees the money on our cash tables as money. They are chips, even if they have a direct monetary conversion. In that sense, winning a bunch of chips at a cash table or a bunch of chips at a SNG table gets you exactly the same thrill. If you do see the chips on your cash table as money, then you are playing above your bankroll and should move down immediately. You're not a poker player anymore, you're a gambler.

The reason cash is more fun is that we play a lot deeper in terms of stack to big blind ratio. It makes post-flop play a lot more challenging. If you want to have the possibility to bet pot on each street, you need to play at least 100 big blinds deep.

That nearly never happens in tournaments beyond the very first minutes of the game. A couple of levels later you're only 20/30 BB deep and it becomes optimal to play a simplistic "steal blinds, stack with TPTK", a couple of levels later you're less than 15BB deep and the gameplay becomes even more mechanical: push or fold according to ICM theory.
