Sure, and getting closer to GTO could also be expressed as "Fold more preflop and mix up your play postflop so you're not so damn predictable." That would at least be a start that most small stakes players don't want to do.
A full ring small stakes game where everyone plays close to GTO pre isn't going to last long anyway. Who wants to sit and fold hands all the time, only to pay huge rake the few times they get into a competitive pot?
(Oops, I meant time charge. The house gets a turn in this GT game, and they respond to so much stellar preflop play by time charging all the games instead of raking them.)
So we already start off on a non-remotely-GTO foot. Of course even the sharps should now play looser than GTO preflop because our opponents have huge postflop leaks. But even playing perfectly GTO post would only make our opps lose less, because of
their extreme looseness.
