      It's not even about getting more icing, not really. It's just that a cake that doesn't have that top icing doesn't feel like a complete cake. If someone gave me like a giant piece of cake but it's just the bottom half of it, i'd be like where's the rest of it. If they gave me a small piece of cake with all the layers, i'd be like this is a tiny piece of cake, but without feeling like something is missing

Granted, needing to create the support structure may be balanced out by each slice having equal composition, but I personally don't care about the superficial details of cakes that render this benefit; I'd rather consider the cake as any arbitrary, stout cylinder. Thinking in such terms makes the original method much more interesting and surprising, not least because any individual can do it easily by themselves, without the need of some support structure which I doubt anyone would actually bother to create for the sake of solving a low-stakes puzzle like this one.
