The Cross is an underrated step

[cirnov2]

Welcome to another one of my stupid shower thoughts.

The cross is underrated.
Here's why.

1: It's the easiest step possible. For first time learners, it gives a bit of motivation to follow.
2: Always the first step (almost. looking at you Petrus...) in every okay to good method.
3: It's a cross.
4: It's, i repeat, the first step to a journey.

We may all be stupid, but we all had the same roots ngl.

Nope. Roux, ZZ, the other main two methods don't use it.

3: It's a cross.

That's not a reason.

4: It's, i repeat, the first step to a journey.

Just reason 1 again.

We may all be stupid, but we all had the same roots ngl.

I don't know what this means.

You are misinformed. Most people who don’t use ZZ are. Good ZZ uses EOCross for two handed solving. EOLine doesn’t save that many moves so the higher TPS you can get with EOCross makes line worse.

I suppose I was misinformed, I was going off of what the main wiki page said.

Is cross really that underrated, when it's, besides F2L, one of the steps that get the most attention once you reach 10-12 seconds?

If I use your words, almost no good Method uses Cross, especially not Roux and that is one excellent method.

Also I know you have been Roleplaying before to bring your points across/to have an excuse to be rude, just drop it, it's a cross isn't even a coherent thought.
