Yep, that’s the point. Offsides in soccer actually creates more offensive chance
Teams would be less likely to attack and score if their defenders had to sit back and “guard” the final third the whole match.

For those of you who “know” soccer, please explain why Offsides is a good rule.

Prevents cherry picking, lobbing long balls over the defenders into a small group just waiting by the other goal.

There would be no cherry picking if there wasn’t offsides, because a defender would never let an attacker hang behind

Yeah, each side would protect itself and there would be little push forward

Could you get the same effect from variants on Offsides that are less subjective

The defense would never move forwards without the offsides rule. The defense moving forward is what creates any

Why have offsides in American football? Or in rugby?
