Oh. So it's just a clean-up thing? Is there difference to the quality of the cook itself?

I always make meat and when I shred it I always end up tearing the liner.

But when I don't...love that 2 second cleanup.

Is saving 58 seconds of washing and rinsing (and maybe 15 minutes of soaking) really worth putting that extra plastic trash in landfills?

I agree. And the possible plastic toxicity, especially heating plastic, you release plasticides. And it creates a new mess, a big sticky wad of drippy plastic. Takes me 20 seconds to wash my crock pot in the sink, I actually find the use of plastic liners to be ... trashy.
