Well when trading options, people tend to lose more than they realize to bid-ask spread, and everyone assumes that all S&amp;P companies have low spreads but that isn't inherently the case. 
  
 Hell, even that pretty generous filter of a spread below 10 cents (so $20 loss on market order options for entry and exit) is only satisfied by around a 1/3 of companies. 
  
 What would be the benefit of loading the most illiquid options?

Illiquid spreads would actually be the lost for most people as they would have to bid for a higher inbetween price. In addition illiquidity shows more caution around a certain stock and a higher risk rate.
