I always just viewed it as a tool for communication.
the stigma is you HAVE to use it. many FC chats are dead because the people are all in TS. often the people don't read the chat, don't answer in chat so without TS you have no chance to build some friendships or clear content with your FC. almost all raidgroups requiere TS and don't want any non-TS people, even random groups for ex primals and stuff want a full TS group sometimes.

if a FC says "TS optional, only for raid" it always ended this way, being alone because the "hardcore" players are always in the TS and only 2-3 other people are online besides them and they don't want / can't do any content...

it took me a whole while but i found a 100% non-TS FC. and back then also a non-TS raidgroup. TS optionl is: "we are in TS and don't care about you"

so this tool of communication leads easily to less communication if you don't want / can't use it
