To emphasize your point -


High bevel angle have almost no down side in a conventional bevel down plane - as long as the bevel

is far enough below the bedding angle to provide relief, you could go as high as 35°

(assuming the blade steel was otherwise of virtue).


In the case of blade used bevel up, where low angles can be of benefit on end grain, there

is a disadvantage to be taken into consideration.


It's all a (whisper it) compromise.
