Which kind of harmony did classical era composers prefer?

Classical Era composers preferred a Diatonic Harmony, favoring a Tonic - Dominant - Tonic scheme (I-V-I)

Explanation:

The diatonic scale is formed by 7 consecutive musical notes that includes 5 whole tones and 2 half tones. Any sequence of seven successive natural notes, and any transposition of them, is a diatonic scale. In classical music, the diatonic scales are simplified into two variants: Major diatonic scale, and minor diatonic scale.

The tonic note is the note that defines the tone of the piece, it is the first note of a diatonic scale. The tonic center was the most important one that a composer used in a piece of music, with most pieces beginning and ending on the tonic, and usually harmonizing to the dominant (the fifth scale degree above the tonic) in between. It´s called the dominant because it is the second most important to the first scale degree, the tonic.

explanation:

the word bias is often used as a kpop reference. i actually asked the same question when i started listening and exploring kpop. there are many kpop bands, and in each band, people usually have a favorite band member. they refer to their favorite band member as their ‘bias’. if you’re using this word “normally”, it would usually mean prejudice against someone or something.

bias is a prejudice. when we favor or dislike something or someone then it is a bias.

did you know how the same thing is framed influences our decision making. both of these labels say the same thing. there is 20% fat but labeling it differently influences consumer decisions about which one to buy.
