..the fact that they exist doesn't change that I don't want to play with them.
I've had the experience of having a lead singer with poor enough technique that I'd have to sing the entire 3rd set on the second night, so said singer could contribute nothing for a third of that night, I was already singing 3 songs per set.
What really annoyed me was that with me taking the lead meant the high harmony I did was missing. Changed how the song was supposed to sound. It didn't help that the guy, a few years later, asked me to do the keyboard parts on one of his songs (studio work). I had come up with the hook, the bridge, and wrote the 3rd verse lyrics. When his single was pressed, my name was not on there.
I wrote half the song, the arrangement was mine & I actually played on the record.
Soured me further on working with a nonplayer. He had 3 chords on an acoustic guitar and 2 verses, and thinks he's a songwriter. :
