How cold exactly was it when you slept in those conditions, what were the temperatures? Where did you sleep, in mountainous regions, in forests, where more specifically? What were you wearing when you were in those situations? Even your weight is important, if you're a skinny person you can get hypothermia faster while for someone with more fat on them it can take longer to get hypothermia, also your physical condition can play a part here and how physically healthy you are. Even food can influence this a bit, if you didn't eat for a while it can be easier to get hypothermia, alcohol as well can speed up the process although hypothermia can happen even without alcohol, if the weather is windy that can also speed up the process, having wet clothes can also make it faster to get hypothermia. These things are important when talking about this method, if you were wearing clothes that protect you from the cold or at least keep you warm enough to survive, if you slept in a tent as well then that's why you didn't go into the later stages of hypothermia. Also I understand why you don't like this method, I'm not saying it's a peaceful method, it's not at all, but I don't think it's the worst method either, there are worse ways to die than this. As I said before, many methods have their own levels of pain or discomfort, it depends what you prefer between the options you have available and if you really want to die then you have to take action no matter what method you choose. Also you gave an example earlier about stabbing, saying hypothermia isn't like stabbing yourself but do you think stabbing is a reliable method? I don't think it's a very reliable method and it can be very painful
