Why does nobody talk about skipping the bloom phase entirely?

I got tired of waiting 45 seconds every morning in Portland so I just started pouring straight through and honestly the cup tastes almost identical to me, way brighter and less bitter than I expected. Problem was I always read that bloom is non-negotiable for flavor extraction, but my neighbor who roasts his own beans said it only matters for stale coffee. Has anyone else dropped the bloom and noticed zero difference, or am I just missing something with my cheap grinder?
