I just feel like it’s fucking stupid when fees are high like this. I can see why they’d wanna do that when you get basically 6.25 either way, but this is just a vestige of that environment. It’s not like hashing on an empty template gets you a head start on the real block bc of how hashing works
The real block is any valid block. There is no rule stating blocks must contain transactions.

I agree but it’s still dumb to me
powering down all your miners whilst you validate someone else's new block is more dumb
Stratumv2 can fix this.
