I started using a belt when I found the weights getting heavy for me. It needs to be on correctly or it’s a waste of time.
I agree with your point about bench and curls although it may be useful for heavy lifting on a bench. I’ve never got that heavy yet though.
Yeah I just think it’s counter productive when people rely on belts / straps etc for exercise especially from an early stage. Depends what your goals are
