everyone has their own interest in trading or staking. people who prefer trading will certainly like the profits they get from trading. on the other hand, those who do not have enough trading skills may like the APR offered by the platform even though it is small.
I don't know if you are a trader and also stake assets on a particular platform. some people don't like staking because of the problem of asset ownership. it's like you are lending your assets and receiving interest from the platform. assets are not in your control. therefore more people will keep their assets in their wallets as long-term investments in their own hands.
If you are not long in trading, your skills won't be good enough, resulting for you to earn only less income which you may not like and I think it doesn't make sense to stay on a low-paying activity because others might offer us a better paying rate and then the workflow on them is much more acceptable to us as well.
In staking, we can usually see a huge APR's, so a small one can be unappealing but staking is still less technical than in trading, so why not right? What is only important there is that we are safe because usually those who offer huge APR's are unknown coins or are done in the platforms that are also unknown to the majority of us yet. This is related to the asset ownership you are talking about there, because in staking we usually don't hold our coins but it is deposited in another platform. This would be its main disadvantage despite of its advantage of being easy.
