While yes, the bonus is the weakest, its also the only bonus for great weapon users, which are the strongest already in terms of damage. So its less that GWF gives little benefit and more that the other fighting styles give greater benefits just to be in the same ballpark. Its like saying that True Polymorph on Warlock is a bad mystic arcanum because Wish is usually so much better. Sure, I can concede that Wish would be better, but you can't take it as a warlock (unless you're a genie warlock) so it's not a fair comparison. For fighting styles (in the 2024 PHB), your only compatible styles are Defense, Blind Fighting, and GWF. And only one gives any damage bonus whatsoever.</blockquote>
