meat braising -- lid on or off in a dutch oven?

Okay. I thought this was settled because I saw a Kenji comment on this subreddit from 10 years ago that said that lid off helps lower temp by 10 degrees, and lower is generally better -- so the verdict is generally lid off if you're using a dutch oven at 250F oven?

Why wouldn't you just lower the temperature of the oven by 10 degrees instead of adding more complexity of leaving the lid ajar?

It it just the added benefit of not having to spend as much time reducing? Confused.
