They just shoot themselves in the foot by pushing the anti-early and anti-mail-in voting efforts.

I suppose it's all part of the overall effort to delegitimize elections, but I think all it does is make them too dependent on election day. I'm glad they do it because it helps us, but it just seems stupid.

people can have personal problems preventing them from voting. They may be faced with long lines, malfunctioning equipment, or competing priorities, bad weather/storms/etc.

I voted early and feel good about it. Many states have an online confirmation to show that your vote was counted if early or mail in.
