Are blind rolls implemented across the board like that very often? There's plenty of rolls that don't affect the game if the players know about them, or would hinder the game like you're saying. Probably for the sake of brevity the OG OP just didn't clarify all the exceptions to the rule. IDK tho maybe there really are pure-secret-roll DMs
You'd generally want blind rolls whenever a player is trying to find something out, like check for traps or see if someone's lying.
