Equalizers have a positive use with overly wide microphones like
most electrets.  Cut everything below 100 Hz, roll off 200 Hz a
bit, add a modest 3 to 5 dB per octave rise above 1000 Hz and pull
it back down above 3 KHz and one generally has outstanding audio
that sounds very life-like.

Unfortunately like any tool, EQ can be misused unintentionally by those
who don't know how to use it properly or misused intentionally by those
who don't care about the impact to others.
