Handicap takes away the sense of accomplishment. Winning against someone stronger doesn’t feel super great because oh it’s handicap, it’s literally designed to give you 50% chance. Winning against someone weaker doesn’t feel good because you won against merely a weaker player. Losing against someone stronger feels kinda bad because you had such an advantage and still lost. And losing against someone weaker feels really bad because they play noticeably bad.
