I'll give you 80% of a reply, but you're going to have to mill out the rest of it.

Objectively inferior to 100% lowers.

80% builds were all the rage with the cool kids when it looked like Obama and Hillary were going to turn the US into Australia. Now you can buy two complete ARs for less than what it would cost to buy the tools for an 80% build and there's approximately zero chance the Bureau of All Things Fun and Exciting is going to kick your door in for owning a basic bitch sporting rifle with a 16" barrel.

I was going to buy one and all the parts, but then I noticed for about 20-30 bucks extra I could have the whole lower pre assembled shipped to my FFL with free shipping so it saves me time and stress.

Target markets

Everyone else just buys completed lowers to save opportunity cost.

I like them

I made a few with a router. Only did so becuase it was actually cheaper for me since I use to live in commifornia and buying 5 cost more than making 5. Came out looking like shit since the jig I used was shit, but they work. Even the shitty polymer lower works fine after like 500 rounds.
