It absolutely should be - it gives you no reasonable value… you don’t get there any faster - and having priority boarding (outside of for those with kids/disabilities) makes everything slower for everyone. It is absolutely the most frivolous luxury.
100% even if I get like a or b group I still don’t board til the end. Does me no good getting on the plane before everyone if I have an assigned seat. I usually have just a backpack with me and don’t need to waste my time with the stupid overhead bin. Southwest was the only airline where boarding made sense and now they’re fucking that up too.

It’s a frivolous luxury that costs like $20 extra per ticket. For most people that’s just personal preference.
For twenty bucks you might be moving yourself from group 7 to group 5 - it costs hundreds or thousands to reach group 1.
