The benefit of the toggle is in the ability to not use your sneak attack on the first hit (which you should be able to do). You will have the toggle on most of the time. But if you want to finish a 1hp enemie, befor moving and attacking again, you'll be able to not waste your sneak attack.

Exactly. It'll probably be active 99% of the time, but once in a while you want to attack without it. And we really want to not have Sneak Attack as a declared attack, both because having 2 chances makes Sneak Attack a tad more reliable and because they might add melee weapon attack cantrips to Arcane Tricksters, which is part of their primary draw in tabletop these days, and we really don't want to have to choose between casting Booming Blade and using Sneak Attack when they are designed to work together.

Don't you just hate it when people with dumb opinions have nice avatars?
