There is a small benefit. However it’s a negative to the lenders which include many socially advantageous institutions like pension funds which purchase securitized debt.
The negatives are so numerous it’s a struggle to find any upsides. Luckily I am rich and own property with government-subsidized fixed rate mortgages so I will ride out all the terrible outcomes with a shrug.
