No one benefits from the increase in fees apart from miners, because everyone except miners, in the Bitcoin ecosystem hopes that fees can be as low as possible so that it will help them complete transactions more quickly and cheaply. But the problem is that this will not happen on the Bitcoin network, because the Bitcoin network is often congested and that makes fees even more expensive. Even though the fees are now back to normal, congested problems can occur again on the network and that makes fees even more expensive.

First: I would not consider average transactions costing $3 US normal. That is a 300% increase over normal from just a short time ago. 300% is a huge increase in pay for the miners.
Second: solutions to the Bitcoin speed problem have been solved by other Bitcoin forks and Bitcoin developers don't seem to interested in working to solve these problems.

The Bitcoin developers increased the block size to 4MB, a 400% increase in size, without improving the speed of the network. They use this additional space to store inscriptions!!!? Huh

This is obviously being driven by something other than "peer-to-peer electronic cash". All you have to do is use the 4MB for transaction storage and you instantly increase the capacity of the network by 400% which would speed up transactions for an equivalent fee effectively lowering fees.

This is not rocket science!
