Here’s how I see it:
People that give an auto-loss to someone for not capping their multis are lazy or dumb, and should give their best effort to find the rhymes.
People that don’t think you should cap your multis are bitchy and inconsiderate. It costs you nothing but it makes the voter’s life a lot easier. Different people have different accents and if you want someone with a different accent to recognise a rhyme in your accent you need to point out the rhymes so they see what you’re doing. Also, since “filling the box” basically leads to an unbroken wall of text, it’s really hard to grasp the flow and cadence of a line until you’ve read the next one and worked out there the rhymes are and how they fit together, whereas when you mark out rhymes the same way you’d emphasise them verbally, this at least gives the reader a fighting chance.
I do also agree that people start to pull really long multis, but lots of people cap their multis and still stay between 4-6 which is the ideal zone imo.
