I agree on the benefits of multiple candidates, but you might be underestimating the possibility of long-term change in the two-party structure due to ranked choice voting. It allows third parties to slowly gain voteshare, power, and influence over time, because in each election, people can express those preferences without worrying about throwing away their votes. I'm not guaranteeing that would happen, but I think it's a likely benefit.
