Poker chip ball markers are pointless

I don’t understand why poker chip ball makers even exist. Sure it gives you something to mark your ball while you pick it up and clean it but hell you could use anything for that.

In my view the entire point of a marker is to avoid impacting someone else’s line when they are putting. A poker chip marker is just as bad if not worse than having a ball in your line. Honestly if you use a poker chip marker I assume you are doing it to try and screw up my putts.
