Not "are saying" -- it's pretty much an undisputable fact that the destroyer is the easiest hard mode boss, and this has been known for a long time. Similarly, the eater of worlds is easier than the eye of cthulhu.

Regardless of what individual players may think based on their personal experiences, the fact of the matter is that worm enemies have weaknesses that are easy to exploit:
 * Take damage very easily due to having multiple segments
 * Movement pattern is extremely predictable and exploitable
 * No "phases," the battle is constant for the entire duration, whereas other bosses have phases where their behavior changes after they take a certain amount of damage
 * The destroyer's probes drops hearts that heal you
