Even a short note like “this size runs smaller than expected” can help someone. In the past I have wasted money on items that looked good in photos but felt cheap in real life. If they ignore basic questions or reply with copy pasted text, I become suspicious.
If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.

Trendy pieces are fun, but I only buy them when the price is reasonable. Online shopping will always have a bit of risk, but experience makes it easier. I think it is better to build a small collection of reliable products than to buy random cheap things. I enjoy reading threads where people honestly share what worked and what failed for them. Some charts are very generic and do not match real measurements at all. I try to look for real photos of the insoles and soles, not only the outside of the shoe. In the past I have wasted money on items that looked good in photos but felt cheap in real life. I like when a shop clearly shows PD, lens height and bridge width in millimeters.
Hope this helps someone.
