It depends what you want. They work as a workaround for an existing
injury, and that is why I started using them. But I use them sparingly
and on one hand only. I don't care for big back, which I can't use due
to weak grip, so I see no reason in using straps on a regular basis.

I have always used straps on a regular basis for all of my back training
except my deadlifts. I have never had grip issues. Possibly this was
because
of my deadlift training as I regularly repped with 360 to 400 pounds. But
if
it becomes a problem now I will simply take up grip exercises. I like how
strong using the straps keeps my back.

Like without straps your back wouldn't develop.

If he could not life as much weight without the straps, then yes.
