But the whole point of sweetspot training is that it is hard, but not too hard. Sweetspot training isn't supposed to leave you hating life.

I am planning to use plenty of them as part of my base training for next year. Basically starting around 88% for 2x20 and working up to 95% for 3x30 with progressive interval length, shortening rest interval and intensity.
It means the sessions will end up going over an hour but it's a lower stress session that doesn't smash my eyeballs out but is enough of a TSS filler - I'd love to just do long rides all winter unfortunately not feasible for me.
