The only benefit as i see it is if you have an extremely large amount of cash in checking/savings, then you can apply that to the HELOC (which allows you to effectively pay down the mortgage faster) while still having the heloc to manage monthly expenses like a checking account.

So it is a way to use dormant funds better. There are hundreds of ways to use dormant funds better. The HELOC isnt necessarily better.

I feel like I’ve watched every velocity banking video on YouTube and still don’t understand the concept…

I just pay extra monthly on my mortgage. Started with a 30 year in 2015, refi to 15 in October 21, hoping to pay it off by 2026
