re: Every time I find the 2.5s in the squat racks, I wonder WTF they are doing.

They are used for micro progression. Lifters who like to do linear progression get to a point where making large jumps in intensity becomes impossible to train. Micro and fractional plates make it possible to progress in smaller, more attainable increments.

As a skinny guy those 2.5 weights add up over a few months. I use them for the squat rack and overhead press. Deadlifts not so much.

I find it funny that someone who "overloads" is scared of a little weight. You must be insecure about other things.
