Half of what I read about them says they are the #1 best upgrade you can do to reduce felt recoil will increase the life of your parts and performance of the ammo you tuned it to.
The other half of the stuff I see is that they're a 3-gun meme and unless you're Keanu you shouldn't have one because it makes your rifle unreliable outside of the specific load you tuned it to.
Are they meme or supreme?
Suppressed.
Normal.
Adverse.
The only three settings you'll ever need.

If you really need to reduce felt recoil in an AR, you have bigger problems than needing an adjustable gas block. AR's have like 0 felt recoil

how could the freedom of using your gas amount be a bad thing ?
if you need more gas - turn up the valve

The vast majority of AR rifles come over gassed from the factory, this is so neckbeards who don't clean their rifles an use shit ammo don't complain about "reliability" An adjustable gas block allows you to restrict gas flow to only what is needed for a particular type of ammo. This reduces recoil, extends part life and can also cause less fouling in the action. adjustable gas blocks are great.

Fun fact, AK pattern rifles are CRAZY over gassed, this is one of the reasons they run so reliably. it is possible though to make your gas block adjustable. An adjustable gas block on an ak is nice, because it gives you a noticeable drop in recoil and stops your bolt form beating the shit out of your receiver.

those idiots don't realize that you can adjust the gas block to provide more gas than needed.

No need for an adjustable block unless you have an sbr or carbine.

Not if it is AR-10.

If you're building the gun anyway, you might as well spend an extra 30 shekels on it so you can tune it to fire the weakest loads you can find. If it shoots them reliably then anything else will be fine and your muzzle break can actually do its job because it will have enough gas to work.
