Yes I don't mind different things being tried and done (though some like auto-tune I don't like) but why desert some other aspects and good harmonies can really enhance a vocal.

Most recorded voices in pop now are so processed and auto-tuned that they sound barely human.
Every pop group/star/producer in the 40 year 'Golden Age' knew the magic of backing vocals & harmonies. Music now has hooks but no magic, it's become the sounds of narcissism & brain damage.
honey!oh sugar sugar.

If I were still producing, I'd change that.
Then please start producing.
