I agree with you here as well. However, it isn't binary.
There are a lot of instances where it makes sense pending:

There are many factors on which an ICO will become successful. 90% of them are created to scam people but there are some who genuinely work for it. But the credibility of an ICO is getting weaken day by day because of the ETH hacking and owners scamming people.
When ICOs with ETH platform weaken, I think Waves is next subjects for investor from ICOs. The platform blockchain of Waves very good and can compete with ETH in future on market ICOs. In present, Waves have 2 project success is MobileGo and ZrCoin
