If it isn't proven to be effective, then it usually isn't used.
You get what I'm saying?
There are 124 drivers and you say that if they aren’t used they are usually bad. Wow. Every driver has a use except for SUUUUPPPPER BAD DRIVERS like edge or drivers that are useless like reboot because there is an upgrade, ultimate reboot.
Counterargument: Weight. Hold. Planet. Wedge. Impact. Sword. Liner. Survive. Defense. Press.
As far as Standard format goes, these and many other parts are almost never used as they are considered either bad, outclassed, or too niche to be usable. While Limited format may be another story, it still has its own META to take into consideration. Something that's good in Standard may suck in Limited, and vice versa.
But I can guarantee you this: If people know a part performs well, they will use it. If a part is considered bad or outclassed, people will avoid using it, if possible.
In ANY game, not just Beyblade, I have never seen anyone WILLINGLY choose to use the inferior option if they're capable of using the superior one.
