While you wanna dead in low heel, hard sole shoes, I find that an elevated heel helps with depth, and that's not blasphemy, that's personal preference.
I have a pair of Nike Romaleo’s that are collecting dust. Can’t imagine ever wearing them again. I miss the feeling of the hard sole doing cleans but the toe box is just so tight.
I would definitely not do deadlifts with an elevated heel. If you struggle with depth, I would address that muscle tightness issue.
This is I what I get? Look, guy, you need a little heel height if you got some messed up rusty hips, stiff ankles, or some mobility problem. I’m not like that.
If you really think you have to wear a little higher heel because it makes your numbers better, then yeah, I suppose I forgot I'm on HN
