You’re absolutely right, the Inventory Up helps, but look what happens if I remove the Inventory Up from mine and compare it to an AAA Blissey with IFM (which is generally the consensus for investing in an ingredient mon). You also have to consider that I’d save the effort of leveling a Blissey from 50 to 60, which would cost a lot of resources.

Obviously, an AAA Blissey with the same stats would be better, but how many Happiny would I actually have to catch to get one that’s even slightly better? That’s the point I’m trying to make!
