I mean, I have no love lost for realtors.

That being said, they are in sales. They are being paid to sell a product. They are saying what they need to say to sell the product.

Should they take their client's product to a customer and say "look, we're trying to sell this, but honestly it's a bad deal and you really shouldn't buy it"?

I was an agent for 3 years back when I was starting out from 2001-2004 and I did that a few times. I was honest with people and those people still bought something else that made more sense. Nothing wrong with honesty and that also comes with understanding your market and knowing what is and isn't a good deal.

Knowing my market led me to other opportunities too and I was able to move past just being an agent.
