Kinda depends how you like your potatoes. I generally like them a little lumpy, but I think the twelve or so of us in the lumpy crew nationwide lose that fight every Thanksgiving.
But! The ineffective ass potato masher does a real good job of breaking up ground meat in to super tiny bits in the pan for stuff like Taco meat.
Ineffective potato kasher is an amazing taco meat maker. And sometimes you want lumpy potatoes, like you said. I prefer smooth but something like bangers and mash? It just makes it feel more a substantial if there’s lumps.

I use a perforated masher. It’s like the middle ground between this and a ricer.

I’m in the lumpy potato crew! Some texture makes them so much nicer. Also, don’t add so much milk: I want to taste potatoes
…… of course I also tend to leave the skins in, plus there may be garlic or caramelized onions

Head of garlic in to 2 sticks of butter on the stove, in to the potatoes when they’re ready. Skins and all.
Nommmmmm
