There are many small stakes examples where that’s just not true.
Games like $1/3 with $100 min buy-in can turn into preflop shove fests with button straddles. Players who come to see flops don’t like that.
A decent amount of players who likes to limp/call also decides to just fold when the straddle is on.
What’s good for the game depends on what keeps players happy. If the straddle turns a game that frequently sees 4-5 players to the flop into a game where most pots are contested heads-up, that doesn’t make too many players happy.
