Are snap-together stake-style 'tomato cages' actually good for tomatoes?

This is the most contested question in the data. Verified-purchase reviewers generally rate them well for peppers, eggplant, dahlias, and determinate tomatoes, but multiple high-trust gardening subreddit threads warn they are underbuilt for full-size indeterminate tomatoes and can buckle once fruit sets. If you grow indeterminates, the consensus is to either upsize, double-stake, or switch to a Florida weave or arch trellis.
