What’s the point of Equal house?

[Charles]

I get the function of whole sign, and Placidus, but… why equal house? It’s like a weird middle ground to me that doesn’t make sense in practice. Or am I wrong?

People have been arguing about which House system to use for a while. Equal houses are a very valid form of house system. Like religion, most people use the house system they were taught when learning Astrology.
