Make sure to explain to them that a node that doesn’t verify your own transactions is kinda useless for the network. It has to have some economic weight behind it, or it’s just a LARP that helps in no shape or form apart of being a ledger archive/backup.

*transactions and wallet balances

Well the knots node does help even without verifying ur own transactions because it is connected to 125 other nodes (default setting that can be changed) and tells them what is in the node's filtered mempool. So the more knots nodes in the network, the more likely it becomes that a node that mines a new block is connected to knots nodes with filtered mempools.
