Is there any reason to not use a hyper detailed graphic EQ curve like the ones on Auto EQ for Equalizer APO? (alien.top)

The hills and valleys are not exactly at the same frequency across multiple instances of headphones, sometimes not even across multiple measurements of the same headphone instance perhaps. If you add a narrow hill to fill a narrow valley but not where the valley is then the result will be worse than no EQ.
