That’s just to pour them into a quite narrow funnel, not all grinders have a large volume. Take the Hario for example, the opening is just about 1 inch wide:
A wide container allows for the water spray to hit the beans evenly, and the spout helps funnel them into the narrower opening of the grinder after having sprayed the beans.
I know these things but don’t have either. I don’t single dose (just weigh the grind output) and the static isn’t that bad in Florida so I have never had a need. People however know these things because popular coffee youtubers talk about it constantly.

what is wrong with you people. yes, but seriously. how do people just know these things?
A lot of people are really into coffee.
What is coffee?
What isn’t coffee.
…apart from most things, I guess.
I’m binge watching James Hoffmann. Easy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I shall ask you a question then o’ wise sage: what possible advantage could there be to this thing being shaped like a damn bedpan???

Some grinders are particularly prone to static cling, my Fellow Ode v1 is terrible about it even in Florida
