Giving minnows a chance has given them a fight.
Which has provided us with more interesting matches.
Am I wrong?

I have practically no complaints on the group stage.
Love to see teams like Cabo Verde compete.

Meh, I don't like that we play three weeks of matches to only bring the field from 48 to 32.

I think that’s right. Smaller teams are playing to win more than they are not to lose/be embarrassed knowing that three points has a good chance of being enough to get through.
Conversely I think the switch to head to head versus goal difference will have a bigger negative impact on the third round of games. That plus I think there would be more juice if the top 8 first place teams got a bye into the round of 16. That would strike the right balance to me of making the group stage games matter on both ends of the spectrum.
