The thing about dividends is that it ends up being so little really unless you have a million in your investing account which no one my age does.
The theory is that dividends are not a net positive. They are taking cash out the balance sheet to pay investors which will lower market cap by whatever they take out. Whether that is actuality based on studies, I dont know.

Reinvesting dividends generates typically around 50% more growth over time. There are also long stretches where dividend payers and growers substantially outperformed growth stocks. The fact that that hasn’t been the case for a decade may suggest some reversion to the mean eventually.
