It gives the plant somewhere to climb, which is how it grows bigger. Just like how they do in nature.

I would say most of the monsteras i know are climbing ones. If you mean the swiss cheese plant, yups it absolutely climbs. And it will get bigger leaves if you give it somewhere to climb 🌱

Whats the benefit of the moss pole compared to say a normal stick

A moss pole retains moisture so the aerial roots can latch on to it and get water at the same time. These aerial roots come from the nodes so it’s important to have those areas touch the moss
