Binx was the worst, she did nothing unless she was bullied into it by production(faking outrage over Brandon who she was totally cool with, and egging Burt is a great example of her doing what she thought was expected to her, and not a genuine reaction). She's a used up thot that looks rough for 32 if she isn't caked up like it's fondant. Even Payton, as boring as she was, would occasionally get overwhelmed by the craziness and have a reaction. I would take almost anyone from FH2.0 over her. She 100% knew what to expect going in, and was there to leech Simps off for her dead streaming gig, and she got exactly what she wanted by being able to drop bongzarippa.
The importance of Binx was her ongoing friendship/one sided romance with Alex, and ongoing feud with Simbal, both major content drivers over the first 3 weeks. I'm sorry, but filling the house full of nothing but socially inept retards(clinically, or otherwise) that "react" and act crazy would be stupid as fuck. That's literally just American Dude Lodge.
Binx was more socially ingratiated with the other fish than any other contestant. It's why even though Alexis, Ron, etc. were cozied up to Payton in the days before their exit, they both said immediately after leaving they wanted Binx to win and that she was their favorite fish. It's why of the four women there (edit: five, I forgot Smaack existed), Binx was the one Alex was willing to leave his wife for. It's why Alexis and Ron gave Fishtank proper a shot and left on semi-decent terms and Payton ended up sticking around for the long haul, Binx eased them into it.
"Content" isn't always about the meltdowns and the autistic slapfights. Relationships between these people have to be formed, otherwise that kind of content doesn't naturally happen. It's why the Letty/Jon dynamic is one of, if not the most memorable parts of S1. We were invested in the relationship between those two people. Binx is no Letty, far from it, but we wouldn't have gotten half the content we got out of Alex if Binx was not there (same with Jon:Letty). Bro was so fucking thirsty for some dusty elder emo pussy that his wife spent the first two weeks crashing out on social media and literally calling the cops on production.
Luke actually held a similar role to Binx this season. He was more of a social adhesive to ground the rest of the extreme characters in the house. He wasn't producing a lot of content, but he sure was facilitating it. It's why his heart to hearts with Burt were charming. Luke was the only one willing to actually talk to Burt and tell him to stop being such a faggot. Same with Binx actually talking to/engaging with other contestants in ways that weren't being fulfilled otherwise.
tl;dr: never go full retard.
